Convert Detached Garage into ADU/Separate Unit

Hello BP universe!

I am looking for a General Contractor or team in Central Florida to take on a project converting a detached garage into an apartment. This could either be done as an ADU or actual separate unit. My property is zoned R-2A which means 1-2 family residential. I would need to add 200-400 sq feet of space to make a proper unit. I am open to size changes based on total ROI (equity increase + pro forma rental income). I have blueprints for 600+ and 700+ sq foot units but I am open to smaller plans (450-550 sq ft).

Any suggestions or referrals are welcome!
