Any issues with the properties from illegal additions to code violations become the responsibility of the new owner! Many people think that just because the price is low that it’s a good deal, but many properties including foreclosures and distressed properties can have illegal additions, sub-standard work, open permits or code violations that the new owner can be made responsible for and have to correct all problems! Homeowners should ask the seller or the seller’s Realtor to research the property and find out if there are building permits and certificates of occupancy issued on any new additions.

It is also the hardest question to answer of all the them. Everything depends on the local jurisdiction and the submittal package prepared by the applicant. If a submittal package is carefully prepared and pre designed and pre submittal conferences are held between the applicant, their consultants and the local affected agencies, things can go quite smoothly.

However, again depending on the jurisdiction, even with a perfect submittal it can take longer to get your building permit approved than it does to build your project.

Some jurisdictions find it difficult to concentrate on simplifying the process. Instead the focus goes to making sure every detail is documented and in writing on the plans. This effort to protect themselves against litigation can block the ability to serve the public by moving the projects quickly through the process.

Projects usually go through review by several separate departments during the permitting process depending on the scope of what you are planning to do. These are Building, Fire, Planning, Utilities, and Development Engineering.

A Building Permit Should Be Forever!!

Don't ever throw away your copy of the building, electrical, plumbing or mechanical permits, issued for your home, especially for any remodeling or alteration projects. The existence of this document will help you close the sale of your home if any questions should arise regarding the competency of the workmanship. Make sure you check with your contractor and have the permit posted on the job site. This is required by law!

Your Building Permit Must Be Renewed!

Almost all jurisdictions only allow 180 days to complete the work or to begin work under an approved building permit. Most jurisdictions require you to renew the permit prior to the expiration date or you must pay a new application fee.
