You have to check with the Deed restrictions on the property. Some properties, especially in suburban areas, have restrictions as to what type of property can be built on it and what standards it has to meet. If your home is built around others that do have electricity and water, it brings the values of the other homes down, that's why they have the restrictions. Your best bet is to try a rural area and ask a Title company if there are areas that do not have restrictions.

Network like crazy.  Try and go to bridal shows.   Talk to builders in your area to see if they'd be willing to let you sell their houses (perhaps at a reduced rate).   Work friend and relatives to help you out.

If you are refering to zoning then you will need to ask the zoning or planning department in your city or county if you can do what you want to do.\n\nIf it is because of a homeowners association and they forbid "commercial business" then you better check with them as you will just have headaches later for not finding out and wasting time if you indeed couldn't.\n\nNow what you are renting will make a difference. If you are talking about a house, apartment etc, then as long as the zoning is cool you can do it. If it is a part of your home (duplex, triplex etc) then its not going to be considered commercial if you are just renting out the extra units. If you are talking storage units then yes that would be considered commercial.\n\nthe zoning is the key, call them up and ask lots of questions

check your county courthouse.  they have legal mubmo jumbo descriptions on property lines for all the residences in the jurisdiction.  you could also try a realtor, but they will charge you.\n\nyou could also build a fence.  i guarantee you that if you build a fence with finding the property line, you'll go a foot or two over.

You'd have to get all the right permits. \nCall your City Planner's office and ask their office of what is required to do such a thing.\nLand use is limited by zoning laws which are determined by the city. So depends on where the land is and what not . You'd also need a boat load of insurance.

I am sure that you will have to apply for a zoning variance if your residence is currently zoned only for single family residences.  Check with your local county zoning board.

The first step would be to check with your local planning commission to see if the property is properly zoned for that type of activity.  Then you need to check to see if that type of facility requires any type of licensing or certification.  Your best bet is to contact a local attorney because laws vary by state.

At your county court house will be a department that maintains zoning restrictions.  If you go there and provide the address of the property in which you are interested, they will be able to tell you which zoning applies.  This will likely define some restrictions concerning animals.  Then you can also access the animal codes of the county which may further define what you can do.  If you live within the boundaries of a city, its animal codes should also be accessed.  In some cases State codes may apply.  All of this should be public record, although you may have to pay a copy fee.  \n\nIf you have an animal control function in your area, they should be able to tell you.\n\nIf you are still not sure, contact your elected county and city representatives and ask them for help.

There are a lot of variables that you have to take into consideration, like who will be the general contractor, taxes, permits, etc.  The one thing that I can tell you is that the cost would probably be extremely high.  Palm Beach has some of the most expensive land in the state, I am just guessing but you can probably expect the lot itself to cost at least 200 grand.  Then you will have to buy the blueprints and have cop pies made of them,  maybe about 600 dollars.  After that you have to have a foundation poured, about 3 to 4 thousand( plus anywhere from 30 to 80 dollars extra per square foot for a basement).  Add to that the total for materials for rough framing,  somewhere in the area of 20 to 50 thousand.  Then the finishing materials,  anywhere from 20 to 120 thousand depending on how nice you want ot make the place.  Then you have your contractors.  The framers will be somewhere in the 20 to 80 thousand dollar range.  Then you have the electricians, plumbers, drywallers, the floor guys, the siders, painters, trim carpenters, and landscapers.  All this adds up to a ton of money.
