        "text": "The cost per square foot for a home addition in the Bay Area can range widely, typically from $300 to $600+, depending on several factors. These include the quality of finishes, complexity of design (e.g., plumbing and electrical work for kitchens/bathrooms), site access, and current material and labor costs. Foundations, roofing, and structural requirements also play a significant role. It's important to obtain detailed bids, as a square foot estimate is a preliminary guide and doesn't account for all project specifics or potential unforeseen conditions.",
