Rental Inspections NOT Required in Wisconsin?

[Mike Cincotta]

I am looking into my first deal and researching a new property.  This is a 3 unit property already leased to tenants.  I called to the County to check on any building permit history and any rental inspections.  To my surprise, I was told that building permits are not required for properties in unincorporated villages and that rental inspections are not required.  Does this sound right?  I live in Minnesota and now way would this fly but just learning about Wisconsin.
