        "text": "The cost of building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in the East Bay Area can vary significantly, typically ranging from $150,000 to over $400,000. This wide range depends on factors like size, complexity of design, foundation type, and interior finishes. For instance, a garage conversion ADU generally costs less than a new detached unit due to existing structures and utility connections. Understanding these variables upfront is crucial for accurate budget planning.",
