Zoning, Permits & Smart Planning: The Key to Infill Success with Henry Rojas

Описание: If you’ve ever thought about getting into infill development or converting commercial properties into residential units, this episode is one you won’t want to miss. We’re talking about the part of the process that most people overlook—but it’s also the part that can completely stall your project if you don’t get it right: zoning, permits, and planning.

This week, I’m joined by Henry Mathew Silva Rojas, founder of Rojas Empire of Design, who’s helped guide hundreds of projects across Ontario through the design and permitting process. Henry shares what really goes on behind the scenes when you're trying to get a project approved—and what separates the plans that move forward from the ones that get stuck.

Here’s what we cover:
The truth about zoning bylaws—and why ignoring them can kill your deal
How to prep a permit package that actually gets approved
What city planners don’t want to see in your submission
Why commercial-to-residential conversions can be a game-changer—if you know how to work the system
and more!

Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned investor, understanding how to approach zoning and permits the right way will save you time, money, and a lot of headaches.

If you're planning an infill or conversion project, this episode gives you the insights you need—straight from someone who's working with cities and developers every single day.
