Where
📍Mountain View, CA
How it Happened
The city is known for strict intake requirements and remote reviewers that slow down communication. Pulley Pro Sabrina Hyman took proactive measures to speed up timelines.
She identified every required document upfront, helping ensure the first submittal was a perfect as possible, and then flagged that the new project’s address was not registered ahead of submittal and avoided intake rejection.
After submittal, Sabrina kept reviewers engaged with a tailored follow-up strategy, securing approvals over 2x faster than anticipated.
Why it Matters
By reducing permitting from 6 months to less than 3, the builder avoided costly delays and brought homes to market faster, gaining over $30,000 from just one ADU.
