I would recommend removing the ceiling fan. It could be a potential hazard and one less thing to fix if it goes out.

@James McCard - The previous owner was running an auto body/ repair shop out of the garages. However, the property is zoned for multifamily housing.

Hi @Rob Falcigno

Thank you for your input and welcome to BiggerPockets! 

It is in the downtown area by UNH. I have spoken to the Planning and Dev. board and they recommended I submit a variance as you have mentioned. The three garages combined are about over 1400 sqft. I'll keep the other two to rent out for parking. Wish me luck!

Hi All,

Happy Holidays! 

Recently I've purchased a single family in West Haven, CT with a five car garage on the same plot of land. We are looking to convert three of the oversized garages to a multifamily residence. Does anyone here have any experience building in West Haven, CT? Any guidance on the permits, rules, restrications, and approvals needed in order to make this happen would be greatly appreciated! 

Thanks and stay safe! 

JM

@Raymond Temprano - Things have been good. I've had 100% rent collections. There have been no interruptions at all.

Thanks,
