What Is Rezoning All About?

Are you facing issues when it comes to selling your property? Your property is well maintained, it is located in a good place and yet you are facing issues. Are you not sure why this is happening? Did you check out the zoning area of your property? Many of us are not aware that the zoning of the property plays an important role when it comes to selling a property. What is this zoning? Well any city is divided into different zones – residential, commercial, transitional and industrial. The zoning laws that are applicable can put a restriction on what you can do with your property.

In such a situation, you can think of rezoning and for that you have to submit the rezoning applications with the concerned authority. They will review your application and will consider all the pros and cons before they go ahead and give the approval. Before you submit the rezoning applications keep in mind the following factors:

• When you apply for rezoning you have to pay a certain amount. Are you comfortable paying it? Do you think it is worth the effort?
• You will have to give a valid reason as to why you are submitting the rezoning applications. The concerned authority is going to verify it.
• If you opt for rezoning will that affect the surrounding properties? You simply cannot go ahead and submit the application.
• Rezoning means that the concerned authority will redraw the map to include your property. So make sure that the reason you provide is solid enough.
