Severance document list: your questions
Is the document list really free?
Yes. Leave your email and the full template opens on the page straight away, and stays open on this device. No card, no trial.
What do I need to open it?
Nothing to install. The template opens on this page as sheets you can read, and you copy the structure into your own spreadsheet. It is always the current version.
Will you email me afterwards?
A short series of practical emails on severances, infill and building in Ontario, and the new tools as they come out. Unsubscribe in one click.
Can ADB do it with me?
Book a project review. We read the zoning on your lot before the call, and the template becomes the first stage of the work.
Book a project review
Two questions, then the address and your details. We review the property against the zoning before we call, so the first conversation is about your lot, not a sales pitch.
Nothing in chat is legal or planning advice for a specific property. Your municipality's by-law in force prevails.
