Marilin Matos Closing Delayed for Certificate of Occupancy
6 March 2020 | 10 replies
I am thinking out loud here but you really should make sure that you obtain a clean/clear Certificate of Occupancy before you close the deal.Even if your lender does not require a Certificate of Occupancy, the City is aware that it MAY NOT issue a Certificate of Occupancy without a garage built on the property.IF you close without this being resolved, the City may contact you as the Owner and (a) demand that you build a garage and (b) inform you that you have a code violation while you have tenants living in the building.IF the City decides that a garage must be built, you could obtain a "conditional" Certificate of Occupancy whereby you either promise to build a garage at a later date/deadline or you make the promise along with paying a bond or escrow to the City.Personally, I would make the Seller pay you for the cost of building a new garage as they are selling the property to you that is not up to code.
