Loft - no permit

[Jen Loch]

Hi all,

Any thoughts on how to manage a property under contract that learned a loft does not have permits? It was built 10 years ago and significant feature of home as used as office and sitting room. Seems like could open a huge can of worms to go to city and get retroactive permit but could also be long term problematic to do nothing… in California if that matters

appreciate any thoughts
