        "text": "Before scheduling a consultation for a room addition, prepare an outline of your project goals, a rough budget range, and a plot plan or property survey if available. A plot plan helps identify property lines, setback limits, and underground utility easements that dictate where an addition can legally sit. Walk through your home and note how you want traffic to flow between the old and new areas. Make a list of your must-have features, such as walk-in closets, vaulted ceilings, or private exterior entries. Having this information organized helps your contractor provide practical feedback on feasibility and realistic scope during initial discussions.",
