Measurements per CO are wrong

[Tom Weyer]

So I am trying to sell my primary residence and the survey does not match the CO.

Basically, the house is 44’ x 30’ (and the survey confirms that) but the CO states it is 44’ x 24’

The thing is, there were definitely no additions to the house. There is a basement and the foundation goes all the way back the full 30’.

The buyer’s attorney has an issue with this (I don’t really blame him) - but how will this pan out?

My attorney put in a FOIL request with the town, but I am curious to see if anyone else has come across this.
