Converting 2 family to 3 family- Rockaway Queens

Member since 2022 · 6 posts · 3 votes

Hi Everyone,

I am interested in converting my 2 family home to a 3 family home by adding another floor on top. My home is in a R5 zone. Is this possible and around what is an estimated/average out of pocket cost?

It would be possible if the zoning allows. You also must have the right amount of FAR and enough spacing for parking. If you don't you can apply for variances, butnot always guaranteed. Reach out to @Jared W Smith. He is my preferred architect.

Hello @Kay Mayes, I am an architect and do work in NYC as well as the surrounding counties. I would be happy to take a look at the property and see if it is possible to do a conversion. DM the property address and we can discuss further. Thanks

Thank you @Ceasar Rosas for the referral. Appreciate it.
