        "text": "Yes, building an attached ADU will typically lead to a reassessment of your property and an increase in property taxes in California. However, Proposition 13 limits the annual increase in assessed value to a maximum of 2% for the existing primary residence. The new construction value of the ADU will be added to the property's base value, but it will not trigger a reassessment of the entire original property. It's advisable to consult with a tax professional or your local assessor's office for specifics related to your property.",
