EP 83 Part 1 | The Permit Insider: From City Hall to Investor Ally with Felipe Hernandez
In this episode, I sit down with Felipe Hernandez, an ADU designer, permit consultant, and former building plan checker for the City of LA. Felipe brings the real insider knowledge because he used to be the one reviewing and approving your ADU plans. π·π½ββοΈπ
We dive deep into:
- His transition from working at LADBS to launching his firm, LA Lots
- The most common (and costly) ADU mistakes homeowners and investors make
- Why AB 2533 is a game-changer for unpermitted garage conversions π
- Real talk on serving our Latino community with transparent design guidance
- How to build legally, ethically, and profitably without getting stuck in city hall red tape
Whether you're an investor looking to build income units or a homeowner trying to do things right this episode is a must-listen.
π§ Stay tuned βtil the end for a quick breakdown in Spanish for our comunidad ππ½
