Anyone have experience converting Duplex to Triplex in Oshawa?
Hi all,
I am thinking about buying a Duplex that might have the ability to be converted to a Triplex. I spoke to the City of Oshawa (licensing department first). They said that kind of project would basically convert the property to an apartment building and requires R6B zoning. If the lot frontage is under the minimum of 25 meters, then I'd need a minor variance for that. There may be other variances as well. That needs to go through the planning department in the city. They require a site plan to get that started.
Has anyone had any experience with this and have done it successfully?
Have you ever hired a consultant to create a site plan for you?
Thanks in advance.
