Скачать или смотреть Why Permit History Matters in Real Estate

Understanding a property’s permit history is one of the most overlooked—but critical—steps in real estate research. In this video, we explain why permit records matter and how they reveal whether improvements, additions, or repairs were done legally and inspected properly. Permit history helps buyers confirm if major work—such as roof replacements, electrical updates, or room additions—was approved by the local building authority. It can also expose unpermitted construction that may affect safety, insurance, and resale value. We show how to locate and read permit data in public records and why verifying permit numbers, issue dates, and contractor names helps ensure accuracy. Sellers can use permit history to validate upgrades and justify pricing, while buyers can use it to negotiate or request repairs. Investors benefit from understanding renovation timelines and compliance risks before purchasing. Reviewing a property’s permit history through tools like PropertyFocus provides a clear picture of its construction background, compliance status, and overall quality—helping you make smarter, safer real estate decisions.
