01

## When does a renovation trigger the 50 percent rule?

In a FEMA flood zone, a large renovation can count as a [substantial improvement](https://build813.multisites.ai/glossary/substantial-improvement). The City of Tampa says that if improvements or repairs exceed 50 percent of a home's value in an A or V zone, the house must be brought up to current code, including elevation. Read the [FEMA 50 percent rule guide](https://build813.multisites.ai/guides/fema-50-percent-rule-rebuild-tampa) before you scope a big remodel.

02

## Do I need a permit to remodel?

Most structural, electrical, plumbing and mechanical work needs a [building permit](https://build813.multisites.ai/glossary/building-permit), and work on a home in a [local historic district](https://build813.multisites.ai/glossary/local-historic-district) can need a [certificate of appropriateness](https://build813.multisites.ai/glossary/certificate-of-appropriateness) first. Our [permits and inspections guide](https://build813.multisites.ai/guides/permits-and-inspections-timeline-tampa) lists the steps.

03

## Renovate or rebuild?

It depends on the house, the lot and the flood rules. Compare the two paths in our [teardown and rebuild guide](https://build813.multisites.ai/guides/teardown-and-rebuild-south-tampa), then talk it through with Halo.
