SFH is set up as a Duplex - How to Re-zone in Boise?

Question

BP Community,

I am going under contract on a property that is currently zoned R-1C in Boise. It is a 3/2 SFH but the current owner has it set up as a 2/1 with kitchen, laundry, etc upstairs and a 1/1 downstairs with kitchen, laundry, etc.

Can I get this re-zoned? If so, can someone point me to someone with zoning or someone with experience in this type of situation?

Can I sell it wholetail if I buy it and let the next buyer figure out the zoning issue?

Thanks for the help.

Congrats on going under contract! This link might help you with some of the R1-C requirements in Boise. https://citycode.cityofboise.org/Home/Detail/108994#section_11-04-03

Boise has actually loosened up on additional dwelling units (ADU's) recently so this might be easier to do now.

One of my agents is actively looking for more investment property so I would appreciate details when you are ready to share them.
