Unfortunately, I’ve run into a major issue: I received a Stop Work Notice on my property in Covington, GA, because I didn’t have the proper permits for the renovations.I want to resolve this as quickly and smoothly as possible without jeopardizing the project.Can anyone offer advice or share their experience with:1.How to address the Stop Work Notice with the local authorities?

congrats on the Naca program I have sold a  handful of my OREO to Naca buyers.. its a great program takes some resolve to go through their initiation process. 

Hope you get it resolved!

Just a few hours of preparation could have saved you many hours of effort, a lot of worry, and thousands in lost income.

It’s nice you’re trying to save them money, but it limits your upside. 

Hopefully, this will be resolved soon, and I can get the permit.

Hello @Yooni Choi,While managing an out-of-state rental property yourself might seem like a money-saving strategy, the reality is much more complex.

In any disputed court action where the court resolves the dispute and determines the prevailing party, the court shall also award to the prevailing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs and the non-prevailing party shall be liable to the prevailing party for payment of any court awarded attorneys’ fees and costs.

If not, you’ll need to resolve these liens, which could complicate the investment.Current Occupants: The family living in the property could be protected under Massachusetts’ tenant and housing laws.

While I think I might have paid slightly above the average price, I’m happy with the installation and impressed with how quickly the installers resolved the issue.
