I have a feeling this is where you are at.Sometimes the Alderman's office or community group will want to see what you are "proposing" to build before you can get their support and actually get the Zoning Change approved; however, technically architectural drawings are not reuired (by the Zoning Board of Appeals) for the map amendment process.Feel free to contact me directly if you would like me to look into your specific property in more detail. 

When the other party doesn’t feel needed and they need to sell or buy they’ll be more likely to concede for their delays, issues, etc.

You feel like you *should* do it, because everyone is doing it. 

I'd be happy to go over any loan questions you might have, so feel free to reach out anytime!

Definitely a contractor, that I trusted, to get a feel for what the renovation may look like but also someone with a structural engineering background as well.

Certainly, feel free to reach out to them, also- their contact information is in the link. 

I feel your pain.

Maybe the house cost too much, or they put too much into the renovation, or both… so they feel compelled to hit their target return on what should have been a more modest house/base to begin with.

I don't know the conversion rate - how much it's actually going to cost me - and it's feels sketchy.

Additionally, we are on the lookout for reliable legal or real estate platforms that could serve as references or resources.If you have any personal experiences or recommendations in these areas, please feel free to share them.
