4 Duplexes For Your Infill Development
With a shortage of land, a need for affordable homes close to city-center, and the undeniable benefits of reducing urban sprawl, many builders are embracing urban infill. Urban infill helps ensure that workers can live close to their jobs. This reduces carbon emissions and pollution. Urban infill also utilizes existing utilities within a neighborhood, brings an economic boost to underdeveloped areas, and creates walkable communities. Urban infill development creates opportunities to live in multi-family homes, condos, or duplex units, instead of the previously prevalent single-family houses.
Ready to build duplexes and be a part of infill development here in Oklahoma City? Here are four great duplex home designs to build on your plot of land.
