A new proposal could reshape how—and where—we build. Here's what it means for you.

Fun in the Sun A Zoning Shake-Up Could Mean Big Changes for San Diego Homeowners San Diego has had a 5,000 sq ft minimum lot size rule in place for over 100 years—but that could soon change. A new proposal, backed by housing analysts London Moeder Advisors, aims to eliminate that minimum entirely. The idea? Let property owners build more homes—think two or three vertical, detached homes—on what today is just one lot. These types of designs, already common in places like Otay Ranch, would be compact, modern, and appealing to buyers looking for affordability without going full condo or townhouse. The potential payoff: Lower-cost homeownership opportunities Increased flexibility for property owners An estimated $10M–$430M in added annual tax revenue If you already own a home on a large lot, this could open the door to adding units or selling at a premium. And if you're a buyer, now might be the time to get in before zoning changes reshape the market and raise land values. This proposal isn't law—yet—but if it gains traction, it could transform neighborhoods across San Diego. Want to know what this might mean for your property or buying strategy? I'd love to help.
