Residential housing conversion

[Amanda Paugas]

Hi BP! I'm looking at an historic property that is currently being used as a town hall but will soon be vacant. My 9-5 job is a home care nurse so I have seen many of these older buildings converted into elderly apartments and I know the need for elderly housing is always in demand. I've only dealt with SFR/multi residential units thus far but would like to cross over into bigger things and commercial spaces. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I should start as far as how to covert this? I'll be talking with the town planner to find out the specifics as to whether this can be used as residential living space. My guess is that they will be eager to use it as such. Did I mention this is also in an opportunity zone?! Looking for advice as to how to get this ball rolling! Thanks BP!
