Obtaining a Zoning Confirmation Letter

·1 min read

From time to time, buyers will find a unique residence or parcel of land to pursue, but its uniqueness presents concerns under the applicable local zoning codes.

Zoning codes can determine whether the residence is permitted to exist in its current condition or that the land can be used for the construction of a new residence.

In addition, the zoning codes will have required set backs for a residence on the property and the standards by which the land can be split into more than one buildable lot.
