Initial Consultation

The first step toward your middle housing project begins with an in-person site visit and preliminary property research. Before we meet, Inhabit reviews your property’s zoning, lot dimensions, and key development considerations. During the one-hour site visit, we walk your property together and discuss your goals, whether you’re envisioning a modest addition or a full lot split. We’ll explore possible new lot line locations and what’s feasible based on your site’s characteristics and city requirements. This consultation lays the groundwork for a detailed feasibility report and helps you make confident, informed decisions about your project’s next steps.

Feasibility Report

Following your initial consultation, Inhabit prepares a clear, customized report outlining what’s possible for your property under current middle housing rules. The report includes key property details such as zoning, lot size, and site conditions, along with an overview of housing types allowed and possible building footprints based on the city’s approved options. We highlight considerations like slope, drainage, access, and parking. The goal is to give you a grounded understanding of your property’s opportunities and constraints, and a clear sense of what steps to take next to move your project forward.

Once you’re ready to move forward, Inhabit manages the full subdivision process from start to finish. This service includes preparing your land division application, coordinating with surveyors, engineers, and city staff, and guiding your project through each step of the review process. We handle the details including timelines, submittals, and technical requirements, so you can focus on your goals for the property. Whether you’re creating one additional lot or several, we ensure your subdivision is designed, approved, and ready for the next phase of development.
