Kitchen added in basement, no permits
19 May 2022 | 47 replies
Work without permit is impermanent work.Not everybody who put in a 2nd kitchen plans to keep it there permanently especially in a SF without ADUAs eventual resale (afteer moving, died, etc) is expected to be with financing which seems the longtime western standard aka '(north) American Dream' as home prices are widely based on 'the most' much banks will lend out for it, and values for state/county/city tax likewise based on such inflated markets to fatten also those officials' pockets too.Typical response from inspector will be 'obtain permit' for impermanent work as most always even just demolition requires permit - before beginning 'any work'.I remember in NYC, people would replace a simple toilet or sink vanity themselves and neighbors would report them the moment they spotted a DIY project - and city would literally come out and issue violation and 'stop all work order' without even getting inside to see if what the tenants and/or neighbors tattled was actually true.

Two Parcels, Two addresses but only ONE house!
9 December 2013 | 6 replies
For example, when I look at the area on Google, there are houses on lots near my subject of interest lot, which do not show on the county assessor website...but they are obviously present.Although county officials don't want in any way to give advice, I am hoping the assessor who reassigned the house street address number to this property, will confirm if the house with the number on the lot next door is in fact the same house that he alleges is on my subject property, that he assigned the new address to.I still would like to find out what will be necessary for me to wrest the property from the current controlling party (who is renting it out to tenants), if I strike a deal to gain all the rights of the existing living spouse of the deceased owner of record.
