If you did a full repipe and gutted the entire property then I assume (in all that means) that there were permits pulled and this should have been caught when the inspector did their rough in walk through or atleast the final occupancy inspection. 

It seems like every city, county, and state has its own rules, permits, and tax requirements for short-term rentals, and I’m finding it overwhelming to navigate all the different layers of compliance.For example, some places require business licenses, transient occupancy tax permits, or even special zoning approvals.

Our average construction time is about 8 months after permit is issued and we are always improving.

Because this clause wasn't in the lease agreement, they closed the case and told me to take it up civilly because they couldn't prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that he wasn't permitted to take everything in the house.  

However, I will always contact the owner as soon as time permits.

Happy to connect and educate some more whenever your schedule permits!

My second house was under contract before it was even listed, but the combination of my GC disappearing and having to restart the permitting process for the carport in March right at the start of Corona lock downs dragged that out and eventually feel out of contract.

I expect you will need a permit and not be issued one. 

A permit was was pulled in 2019 to close out violations as the remarks indicate the home was renovated without permits.

We have requested permits to fix this and have not heard back yet.
