So I have learned no one pulls permits for The city of Chicago. My question is this what happens when you sell the home and the buyer gets an inspection? Do buyers not get inspections in Chicago ? Investors talk to me talk to me

     Every buyer  orders a inspection.  It's not related to the City of Chicago inspection.  

    Regarding the statement "no one pulls permits for The city of Chicago"  I beg to differ.  So many people pull permits in the City of Chicago that there's a backlog.  

    The key is to understand the difference between minor repairs, where no architectural drawings are required,  & major repairs that require approved drawings.
