Permits

[Kevin Izquierdo]

I've been a handyman for quite some time, but I never understood the concept of Permits from a home owners perspective. If I'm the home owner and live there, do I need a permit to fix a kitchen or finish a basement? I remember speaking to a home owner who was selling a house and had to reduce the selling price because of a garage that wasnt on the blueprint of the house. Can anybody give me some insight on this?
