SOUTHWEST FLORIDA / PROJECT GUIDES
Explore client-owned duplex and triplex build concepts, site feasibility and the questions to resolve before designing a small multifamily property.

The answer depends on the specific parcel and proposed use. Review zoning, density, setbacks, access, utilities, parking, life-safety requirements and applicable development approvals with the relevant authority and project professionals.
A duplex and a triplex are not interchangeable approval paths. Do not infer permission for three units from a two-unit example or neighboring property.
Separate entries, thoughtful views and clearly defined outdoor areas can help each home feel personal.
Discuss storage, circulation, parking and maintenance access while the layout is still flexible.
Document the construction scope. Financing, legal structure, tax and operating advice remain separate professional responsibilities.
