A: You should set these facilities as boundaries for your crowdzoning plan as they can be positive factors for your campaign.

Instead, these facilities or exchanges should be used as boundaries or target points to improve the score ranking in appraisal.We would like to emphasize that approaching government or crossing any government restricted sites without proper authorization is strictly prohibited.Policies vary by country so it is important to consult your local government to avoid any legal issues.

16.Q: Why can’t my Google Map show my location in the View Proposal screen?
A: To show your location on the Google Map in the View Proposal screen, you should right-click on one point on the Google Map, scroll down to measure distance, and drag a straight line to another point. Then, get the distance in meters and enter the value in the distance field of the Create Proposal page.
17.Q: Why isn’t my Google Map showing markers even though I have set the distance, area, starting point position, and targeting point position correctly?
A: If you have set all the parameters correctly and still cannot see markers on your Google Map, it could be because you have set a very long distance across natural barriers such as rivers, mountains, or valleys. To avoid this issue, we recommend starting your campaign proposal with a shorter distance without crossing any barriers first. For example, if you plan to target a point 20 kilometers away, start your campaign with a targeting point that is 2-3 kilometers away instead. Once that campaign is completed successfully, you can start a series of campaigns to reach the ultimate targeting point. This approach will help you avoid unnecessary troubles and ensure that your Google Map markers are displayed correctly.
18.Q:What is “Mega Lot Sale”,”Collective Sale”,”Portfolio Sale” and “En-Bloc”?
A:The terms “mega lot sale,” “collective sale,” “bulk sale,” or “en bloc sale” generally refer to the sale of multiple real estate properties as a single lot. These types of sales often involve land, houses, farms, and industrial buildings, and are typically used for large-scale developments or investments.
In contrast, “collective sale,” “bulk sale,” or “en bloc sale” in the context of apartments, units, or condos in a single building or complex involves the collective sale of multiple units or apartments to a single buyer, and can also involve the winding up of a strata corporation. This type of sale is common in Canada, particularly in British Columbia, and is sometimes referred to as a “wind-up.”
In these types of sales, a certain percentage of owners’ approval is often required to comply with regulations in different countries and local governments. This requirement helps to ensure that all owners are fairly represented in the decision-making process and that their interests are protected.

22. Q:Do I need to enter an area that exactly matches the results obtained from calculation formulas presented in your Youtube?
A:These formulas serve as theoretical maximum areas and are primarily used as reference points. In practice, there is flexibility in defining the area, allowing for adjustments and fine-tuning based on specific requirements and constraints. The formulas provide a starting point, but the actual area entered in the proposal can be tailored to better align with the desired outcomes.
23. Q:What are the two primary shadow shapes commonly used in Crowdzoning campaigns on Google My Maps?
A: In Crowdzoning proposals, circular and square shapes are frequently utilized to outline prospective areas. Less commonly utilized are shapes such as rectangles, triangles, polygons, etc. When working with circle areas, the process typically begins by selecting a central point (usually the starting point) and defining the radius as the distance between that point and the desired target. When working with square areas, the process usually starts by selecting the starting point and defining the side length of the square, referred to as the Targeting Point, to calculate the area.
In the United States, regulations related to the percentage of owners’ approval required for a collective sale or bulk sale of properties can vary by state and local jurisdiction. Here are some general guidelines:
