Nowhere is this service needed more than throughout Oregon! Owner's of bare land, be it commercial, residential, or ranch, face a maze of governmental regulation regarding what an owner can do with it.

This can often be as basic as: can I build a home on land that I own? Similarly, questions surround issues like: can a piece of the property be sold, and what is required to develop property owned?

Collectively all these questions are referred to as land use. INVESTwest has considerable knowledge and experience in these matters. A complete list of specific land use services provided would be too long, but by way of example, following is a list of but a few:

• Divisions of land (parceling)
  
• Boundary line adjustments
• Site Plan Applications
• Approval to build a residence (regardless of size of land)
• Special requirements for resource lands, i.e., agriculture and forest
• Zone approval and changes
• Urban Growth Boundary expansions
• Oregon Subdivision Law
• Lot of Record dwellings (how to get approval for a residence on resource land)
• City street vacation applications
• System Development Charges
• Large parcel residential zoned land - subdivision approval
