Many open permits on house

Bienes Raices
  • Orlando, FL
Posted

Has anyone bought one of these houses? One of the houses I'm looking at has at least five open or expired permits from the '90s for jobs like replacing a chain link fence, reroof, pouring a concrete pad in the backyard, etc.

Did you have any trouble getting the permits straightened out with the county? Did it cause issues when you eventually sold the property? If you had a minor roof (etc) repair that needed to be done while the tenant was living there, and you tried to pull permit, did the county give you trouble because there was an old open roof permit?
