        "text": "Yes, converting an existing garage into an ADU is a common and often more cost-effective option than new construction. This process typically involves insulating walls and ceilings, adding plumbing and electrical systems, installing new windows and doors, and ensuring the structure meets all residential building codes for habitation. The feasibility depends on the garage's current condition and local zoning regulations regarding garage conversions.",
