Converting a Portsmouth SFH into a Duplex

Posted

I purchased a SFH in Portsmouth that was once a single level duplex and the previous owner converted it into a SFH. The rental income makes sense to convert it back into a duplex, but I am having a hard time reaching the right person in the City of Portsmouth office. I have been transferred a couple of times and ultimately end up in a voicemail box. Anyone have any experience in this realm or know an individual in the city that can assist? Thanks!

Are you talking about Portsmouth, VA? I am a landlord in Portsmouth and I am in the midst of a super deep value add rehab in Olde Towne. The city can be difficult to deal with at times, but patience and persistence pays off there. Also, when someone tells you something note the exact words they said, the date, and time. Things change around there, people change, and it seems everyone has their own rules and regulations. Protect yourself and always cover your ***!!! Good luck!
