land use vs property class vs zoning use - help!
Bit confused here.
There's a property we're looking at that has 2 separate buildings on the same lot - 1 duplex (3BR/1BA upstairs, 3BR/1BA downstairs) and 1 SFH (2BR/1BA).
They are next to each other in the same vertical line.
When I looked up the records, I'm seeing 3 different terms that I'm trying to understand from a legal perspective. This would be a potential buy and hold property but would still be good to know in case I do get in a situation where I need to sell.
Land use: 5300 - 3-FAMILY PLATTED LOT
Property Class: THREE FAMILY DWELLING
Zoning Use: TWO FAMILY
I've heard to just stay away from these types of 2 buildings on 1 lot deals but I can't help my curiosity to understand how this works.
Thanks BP!
