Public records don’t always reflect all permitted work.
When we added our granny flat – public records properly increased the bedroom and bath count, but did not increase our total square footage.
All of this was done on permit – so no clue why the public records are wrong.
I updated zillow to reflect the proper square footage and saw a big jump on the zestimate.
