        "text": "The timeline for detached ADU construction varies, but a typical project from design to completion can take 9 to 18 months. This includes several phases: initial consultation and design (2-4 months), permitting and city approvals (3-6 months, highly variable by jurisdiction), and actual construction (4-8 months). Factors like the complexity of the design, the size of the unit, site conditions, material lead times, and the efficiency of city permit departments can all influence the overall duration. We work to provide realistic timelines for each unique project.",
