        "text": "The timeline for ADU construction typically involves several phases. Design and permitting can take 3 to 6 months, depending on local planning department workloads and the complexity of the design. Actual construction usually ranges from 4 to 8 months, again varying with the ADU's size, type, and specific site conditions. Overall, homeowners can expect a total project duration from initial design to final completion of about 7 to 14 months. Unexpected site conditions or material delays can extend these estimates.",
