Conditional Use Permit (CUP)

[Rachel Yoo]

Has anyone have experience in buying a MHP with a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) issue? I am a total newbie, but a lawyer, not doing real property law though. But I don't mind and would be interested in tackling some legal issues. The following is what I found in the property description: 

"The County has stated they want to grant the CUP.... Purchaser would have to go through the process and get the CUP granted."

I know the County "wanting to grant the CUP" does not mean anything in reality. So it may not end up granting it. But I just want to know if anyone has experience dealing with the CUP, and if so, please educate me as to how difficult, costly, time-consuming it is. 

Thank you!
