Would you buy a house with a lot of renovation done but no permit
Hello All
a house on sale now has done a lot of renovation including 3 new bathrooms and two new bedrooms, new kitchens, new electrical panel, new electrical baseboards and removed old oil radiators.
The thing is he didn't ever pull a permit for the job.
Got an house inspection report nothing much saying about plumbing and electrical.
would you buy this house? this will definitely cash flow

Nope.... not pulling a permit for electrical and plumbing saves a small amount of money and points to cutting corners on key building infrastructure.
