        "text": "Placing a tiny home without the necessary permits can lead to significant issues. Local authorities can issue stop-work orders, requiring you to cease all construction or occupancy. You may face substantial fines and penalties for non-compliance. In severe cases, the city or county could order the removal of the tiny home from your property. Additionally, obtaining permits retroactively can be more complex, time-consuming, and expensive than applying for them correctly from the outset. It's always recommended to secure all required permits before starting any placement or construction.",
