Multiple Construction Questions

[Aaron Phillips]

Hello BP,

I’m still looking into property investment & development and had a couple questions to ask.

Q1.) When I have a home built. I was told the house foundation has to have a year to settle in before a basement can be built. Is this true? What happens if the basement is built during initial construction?

Q2.) If I were to have an apartment building built from the ground up (4+ units) would the land it’s being built on need to be zoned commercial or residential?

Looking forward to your responses.
