Zoning Services

A Zoning Report is a great add on to any due diligence service that Partner provides – so you can deal with fewer vendors at once. Most real property transactions require a Zoning Report along with the battery of other essential services (Phase I ESA, Property Condition Assessment, ALTA Survey, etc.). Our Zoning Reports are completed by a legal professional (doctor of jurisprudence), within 3 weeks and at very competitive rates.

A zoning report is a necessary part of many real property transactions because the current owner is responsible for existing zoning violations.  If the property being sold is a restaurant in an area not zoned for that purpose, this piece of information could affect the outcome of the sale.  Zoning laws do not end at usage regulations; oftentimes cities and municipalities have provisions on setback requirements, the height of a building, building materials, parking spaces required, etc.  Partner’s Zoning Reports take all of these into consideration as well as other regulations; such as the Americans with Disabilities Act.
