San Diego - New construction 3-4 units behind SFR

Rami W.

I am looking for information/insight on the requirements for building a small 3-4 multi-unit complex BEHIND a SFR on a lot that is already zoned for Multi-units. I've found requirements for building on an empty lot, but not behind a SFR.

E.g. Are two separate detached buildings okay or is this a case-by-case basis depending on the lot characteristics in combination of the size of the existing SFR?

Any insight before I go down to the city to ask is appreciated.

Thank you!

Many of your questions for building requirements can be answered by visiting City Planning and Zoning Department. If you can't get the conventional financing and private money doesn't work for you, you may want to consider wholesaling project and seeing if investor can take you under his/her wing to help show you the ropes. It could be a great learning experience for you.
