Un-permitted bathroom addition
Hi, So I am currently working on my 2nd flip. The first was just updates and paint. The current is 4bed 1bath, which I have decided would be better as a 3bed 2bath. I have had the 2nd floor two bedrooms and hallway converted into a master suite with a walk-in closet and bathroom. The issue is that I did not have any permits pulled for the addition of the bathroom. Everything is roughed in with subfloors down and walls up. I have be having serious doubts now because I do not want to have issues selling the house such as it not matching county records, buyers having issues obtaining financing or potential lawsuit. I just want everything to go smoothly but now am stuck on what to do. Should I just demo all the work and put back as a 4bed 1bath? I am just looking for a straight up answer on what I need to do. Any guidance is greatly appreciated. Thanks
