Non-Permitted Room.... what to do?

[Nadine Lajoie]

Non permitted room, what to do with that? I just got another offer accepted, but realizing the second room was not permitted, 2 or 3 owners ago, so will that put me in trouble when I resell after my repairs? Is there a penalty (or need to destroy the wall, or get city inspection if up to code) if city discover it? I think usually there is no problem, but I'm not sure how to deal with that. I'm still in my contingency period, I can still get out of the deal but I like the place... thanks
