Buying home that has unpermitted work- how to evaluate
My offer got accepted for a multifamily in Newton, MA. I discovered that there are open permits and a lot of work that was done without a permit. The property card says it’s a 4 bdr and 2 bath but it actually has 5 bdr, 3 full ba and 2 half bath. This area is really hard to get into. Has anyone ever dealt with non-permitted work and what was your take on it? I don’t want to walk away from this deal but would like to know what to expect and what my options are. Please advise.
