Illegal home modifications in Connecticut
In Bridgeport, CT to be exact.
I have a property that I am looking at Tuesday that is a 2 family that was converted to a 4 family illegally. The current owner says her father did it a long time ago, she doesn't know when. Since I haven't seen it yet I don't know the real condition of the property or the changes. I plan to make a trip to the permit department this week pending the visit Tuesday. My questions are:
- Has anyone had any experience with something like this and how did it turn out?
- Does anyone have experience in Bridgeport or Connecticut in general with this?
- I'm wondering how time consuming getting this approved to be a 4 family would be in a best and worse case scenario?
- How costly could it be to get this approved in a best and worse case scenario?
Thanks for any info!
