Hi Peyman Ayoubi,did you pull the permits already? 

I would just suggest you make sure you fully understand that process before you dive into it - because you can lose a lot of money fast if you don’t know all the ins and outs.Likewise, rehabbing isn’t always straight forward… like who will do the work, permits, contractors, unknown damage you may not have accounted for - especially in  a foreclosure where there usually isn’t the ability to inspect the property.We’ve done several flips we won at auction, and lost plenty of them in the bidding.  

End to end, I bought the land, secured permits, got the PPA and IA, SUP, and still own the project.

But you might be able to redeem in some circumstances.Some Counties Permit RedemptionCounty commissioners have the discretion to allow the redemption of property the county purchased at a tax sale if all taxes with interest and costs due, less any penalties, are paid. (72 P.S. § 5879).

Just find out the city ordinance is required if you rent any unit for 180 days or less, then you need to pull a permit.

Hi Elvis,You will need to fill out a construction permit if you are doing a major renovation, which requires an inspection from the city to ensure the code is followed.

That's my best advise on it.It is quite common to have issues with permitting or with the removal of tenants so the lender will understand if that's what's going on.

They can also point you to what permits and inspections you will need to get to CO (Certificate of Occupancy).  

Opening one of my 2 recent Escondido permits took over a year.  

I’m curious to see if anyone has any experience in this sort of subject as if it would be easier to buy a home with a building already on it then ask the township for a permit or if we should continue to look to buy and build.
