Ian Barnes True, CA has the most expensive permits and has the longest wait times, well, depending on the city most of the time, but they mostly have half day offices and half day inspections, and most don't have Friday offices (la county law). by volume, they flood review paperworks to third party architects which in turn review turn around for 1 week, then by the third correction, it's now week 4.

My office has parking lot in front.

My wife just walked in my office and said it may be a tri plex... we are not sure  ! 

A real estate investor who specializes in: (1) Multifamily (apartments), (2) Commercial (retail and office) and (3) Commercial development.  

) WOW.......I was amazed at how friendly people were (and nosy) and how willing to chat with me.I listed and sold a property that is now the Fallston Shopping center on Belair Road, lots in Bel Air, commercial properties on Mountain Road (Maryland) and a few small subdivisions to mention a few.While fellow agents sat in the office (playing politics, and waiting for the phone to ring while on floor duty, I was out there walking and talking and getting good exercise, and getting to know people and asking my simple questions and getting leads).

Upon looking to correct the "occupation" info I saw that the info was not there, my license number, office address, markets I service, everything.  

For example, you might put in $10,000 and be able to invest in a $5 million office building.  

I'm going to have to skip out of my some of my Toastmasters meetings and check it out (I'm an officer and charter member of UT Staff Toastmasters- we meet on campus at noon on Thursdays).

@Ralph Perea, give me a call at the office.

The difference here in LA we don't use lawyers , it is agents and escrow officers
