Frequently Asked Questions

Will someone come out to my property?

No, this is just a step to understand the local rules as opposed to construction details.

Can I do this research myself?

Yes! If you have the time and patience, you can definitely do it yourself. We don't want to pressure you into using our zoning services but we have heard all the stressful stories of homeowners having issues with the local jurisdictions.

Why Dwellito?

We have been doing Site Analysis services for years and decided to invest in it to make it 10x cheaper and better. We found so many homeowners abandoning their projects because of bad experiences with this first step.

Why are we so cheap? We use technology to offset the human hours, passing on the savings to you. Don't worry, we still have humans reviewing every report so you can be confident. We also just focus on California as we are experts in Land Use Laws in California.
