        "text": "Converting your garage into a habitable living space, particularly an ADU, typically increases your property's assessed value, which can lead to higher property taxes. The extent of the increase depends on the added value and local assessment policies. It's advisable to consult with a local tax assessor or real estate professional to understand the potential impact before starting your project.",
