Shout out to permit professionals like Roy Hasson (just a friend in LA specializing in navigating permit process - this is not a business play we do not work together), who are dedicated to helping others and will likely develop similar resources to support their communities through the rebuilding process.If you’re working on rebuilding efforts or have questions, feel free to connect with me—I’d love to collaborate.

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

Chris, you’re on the right track asking about permit timelines..

So are you trying to avoid pulling permits? 

And are there any specific permitting issues popping up post-storm?

Attend local builder associations or networking events, and focus on small contractors or businesses without in-house permit expertise.Highlight how you save time and ensure compliance—it’s a big value-add.

Fix-and-flip or builder’s risk insurance should be in place before work begins, and confirm your contractor obtains all necessary permits to avoid delays.

Also, I would recommend adding some sort of screensaver to the TV screen and I second that a professional photographer is the way to go.

If so I would thoroughly ready this to see what they require and what you agreed to.I doubt you can keep your permit if you refuse their inspection.If you are doing everything as you should, you shouldn't have anything to worry about.
