What Is Zoning in Construction?

In every county and in every city there are certain rules that refer to the building restrictions in certain areas, where the land is first put into development. This is zoning, that determines the type of construction which is to be built on the land, the minimum size of the piece of the land, and the number of dwellings you can built on the lot.

Zoning is a feature that must be taken into consideration before purchasing a lot. You can find very useful information about the lot at the local city hall; you can also find there explanations for each zoning designation. For example, the majority of urban and suburban pieces of land designed for home construction are R1, meaning that only one unit can be built on that specific lot. ทาวน์เฮ้าส์มือสอง R2 or R3 means that you are allowed to build a duplex or a triplex.

When purchasing a lot, consider some zoning aspects such as long term construction plans in that specific area. If a land owner that will soon be your neighbor considers building office buildings or blocks of flats, this will negatively affect the value of your property.

Always ask for zoning guidelines, CC&Rs (covenants, conditions and restrictions, and design review guidelines. They state restrictions like setback limits, height limits, style limitations, and other restrictions. When you have in mind purchasing a piece of land, the zoning literature will help you figure out if you will be able to build exactly what you want, with the specific design and number of units.
