Pets: (are) (are not) permitted with a $35.00 fee.

We judge the term of the loan by the amount of repairs to be done, DOM, and permit process.

I know that's a big range, but there are just too many variables to narrow it down further.The city of Petaluma might have a say in this too...if you do this with permits (if they'll even allow it) they might charge you some pretty big fees, so you might want to find out before you do anything.

In our case, we are licensed general and electrical contractors, licensed real estate brokers, one of our partners draws the preliminary site and architectural plans and does renderings and we handle all the permitting process.

You might be better off if you do think about this project to think of a complete or almost complete tear down down to the bare minimum allowed in your city and still qualify for a remodel permit.

Any permitting issues I need to be conscious of? 

I would think developing in the mountains of Colorado would be time consuming but lucrative in that getting permits must be difficult, but tenants will pay higher than average rents.Mark

I know there is an air-bnb restriction, but it looks like that's for super short term rentals....and you just need a permit for that.

Do you know how much such a permit costs, or whether you would even get City permission?

We called the city to verify it wasn't up to code and found out they never pulled permits to build the basement, and the city views it as a single-family dwelling.
