Prevents any issues coming up later when you want to sell the property or when the county sends drones through your neighborhood looking for unpermitted pools/decks/carports, etc to try to raise revenue to cover unfunded liabilities in government spending. ;-)

What’s average spending ?? 

Here is the public records request form:http://www.kcgov.us/services/prrform.pdfIf you look at the line just below the signature box, it reads:"I certify that the information reviewed or received will not be used as a mailing or telephone list as prohibited under Idaho Code §74-120."

I work out of state and only spend 14 days there....

BUt thanks for the review and input

I’m not sure how versed you are in doing taxes so Do your taxes yourself and give them to a few CPAs  to review and if nothing is better or if changes are made you will have a clear answer and it shouldn’t be that expensive. 

I recently had my first tenant move out and had to spend $5000 on the house after them. 

I see so many room illegal additions/conversions where the homeowner spends a lot of money on the project, but when they sell the appraiser assigns it no value because the square footage is unpermitted.

Spend time reading forums and free education here in bigger pockets and you will likely find better info and tools than they will provide.  

@Aaron So if you own a condo in a 2-4 unit complex then the Fannie Mae condominium review is waived.
