FAQs

  • Do coastal zoning rules affect interior remodels?

    Yes, if the footprint changes; we prep CDP applications.

  • Can seawall repairs trigger new easements?

    Sometimes—neighboring lots may seek shared-cost easements; we negotiate terms.

  • Will a partition force sale of a duplex on the Peninsula?

    Courts favor sale when physical division hurts value.

  • Does FEMA flood mapping slow escrow?

    Insurance underwriting extends closing; we build extra time into contracts to account for this.

  • Are short-term rental bans enforceable?

    Yes—city ordinance O-2023-1 limits STR zones; we review compliance pre-purchase.
