        "text": "Deciding between a garage conversion and a new home addition depends on your property, budget, and needs. A garage conversion typically costs less and has a faster timeline because it utilizes an existing structure. It's often ideal for creating an ADU or dedicated workspace. A new addition offers more flexibility in design and size but involves higher costs, longer timelines, and more extensive foundation work. Consider your available space and desired functionality when making this choice.",
