As I suspected – unpermitted additions would normally be more trouble than they’re worth.
Yes, maybe its an L.A thing, but quite a lot of the SFRs I’m looking at have non-permit additions.
Trying to squeeze the very last drop of ‘equity’ by adding another bedroom in the garage, etc. 😉
So – if I was to consider a place with one of these unpermitted additions, I’d be within my rights to make the sale contingent upon the seller getting the correct permits? No permits, no sale?
Good info to know – I wonder how people got away with it during the bubble…
