unrecorded square footage
looking at a foreclosure that the previous owner added around 200 additional square feet.
This was done without a permit, so, the County doesn't have the 200 sq ft on record, Shows a 2bd -1b, its now a 3bd -2 b
what will happen if I was to buy this property ? would this additional sq ft be grandfathered in? ,"as the Realtor told me", or could the county make me tear it off?
anyone come across this type of situation?
