Common Questions

Austin Permitting — FAQs

Austin is one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S. — and its permitting system is under pressure. We know where the bottlenecks are.

How long does a residential permit take in Austin?
Simple residential permits through Austin's express track can take 1–3 weeks. Projects requiring zoning review or plan check can range from 6–16 weeks depending on scope and department workload. JDJ's process is designed to minimize hold time at each stage.
Do I need a permit for an ADU in Austin?
Yes. All ADUs in Austin require building permits and applicable trade permits. Under Austin's HOME Initiative, eligibility rules vary by lot size, zoning, and existing structures. We provide a full ADU feasibility review before any submittal.
What is the AB+C portal and do you use it?
Austin Build + Connect (AB+C) is the City of Austin's online permitting platform for applications, plan review, inspections, and approvals. Yes — JDJ submits and manages all applications directly through AB+C.
Can you handle HOA and county approvals together?
Yes. For properties in HOA-governed communities, we coordinate both the city/county permitting process and HOA/ACC approval submissions in parallel to avoid delays.
