Three ways permit projects go sideways.

If any of these look like your situation, you are not alone — and there is a faster path through.

Rejected permit

The submittal came back with a rejection letter. The design team is pointing in different directions and no one owns the fix. You need someone to take the package and get it back on track.

Stuck in comment cycles

Second, third, fourth round of comments and the reviewer keeps finding new issues. Each cycle adds weeks. You need someone who can break the loop and get to issuance.

Don't know which permits you need

Building, site, civil, environmental, fire, health, ROW — the checklist is unclear and the jurisdiction website is no help. You need someone to map the full permit path before you file.

How we fix it

Three engagement paths to issuance.

Whether you need a rescue, a clean first submittal, or someone who knows the jurisdiction — we have done this before.

Permit rescue

Rejected or stalled? We diagnose what is actually blocking approval, reset the response strategy, and shepherd the package through to issuance. Fast triage, clear path forward.

Clean first submittal

Internal QA across architectural, structural, civil, and MEP before the package leaves the office. Mock-reviewer comment audit catches the issues that cause cycles — before the reviewer does.

Jurisdiction navigation

Direct experience with Orlando, Orange, Seminole, Osceola, and Volusia — each has its own patterns, reviewers, and unwritten preferences. We know them, so your submittal speaks the right language.

Why this matters

A 30-day approval delay can cost more than the entire permit fee.

Construction-loan interest, schedule penalties, missed market windows, and lease-up delays all compound during permit slippage. The cost of clean submittals is small compared to three revision cycles.

  • Carry-cost math — $5M loan at 9% accrues ~$37K/month during permit hold
  • Revision-cycle math — each round typically adds 3-6 weeks per jurisdiction
  • Schedule risk — one missed deadline can push closeout by a full quarter
  • Lease-up risk — multifamily projects pay rent-loss for every month of delay
Realistic timelines

What to expect.

Building-permit cycles in Central Florida typically run:

  • Single-family / ADU — 4-8 weeks initial; 2-4 weeks per resubmittal
  • Small commercial / TI — 6-10 weeks initial; 3-5 weeks per resubmittal
  • Multifamily & mid-rise — 12-20 weeks initial; 4-8 weeks per resubmittal
  • Site civil & horizontal — runs in parallel, often gates building permit
