Northern Virginia Regulatory Depth

Hundreds of entitlement projects through Fairfax, Loudoun, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington, and Alexandria. We know the reviewers and the comment patterns.

03

Environmental Compliance First

We identify Chesapeake Bay buffers, wetlands, floodplains, and protected habitat before the application is filed — not after the first comment letter.

Lender-Ready Documentation

Entitlement files, permit packages, inspection records, and as-built surveys compiled in organized project binders ready for construction lender review.

Client Stories

What Clients Say

"Truett identified a CBLAD buffer issue during due diligence that would have cost us six months. We closed with clear eyes and reconfigured the plan before breaking ground."

Andrew Fischer

Managing Partner, Regional Land Developer

Loudoun County, VA

"The rezoning took 14 months but Truett managed every hearing date, every staff comment, every proffer negotiation. We never missed a board meeting deadline."
