        "text": "Multi-unit construction often benefits from economies of scale compared to single-family homes, potentially lowering the per-unit cost for certain materials and labor due to bulk purchasing and repetitive tasks. However, multi-unit projects typically incur higher costs related to complex engineering, stricter building codes (e.g., fire safety, accessibility), extensive shared infrastructure, and potentially higher impact fees or development charges. Overall project cost will be significantly higher, though the per-unit cost efficiency can be a factor.",
