Any recommendation for an aggressive real estate lawyer that may work on contingency?
House is located in Indian River County area but I assume an attorney anywhere in Florida could assist?
We have a situation for an investment property we purchased just over a year ago.. House was sold to us as a 3/3, came to discover that the addition (which created the 3 BR /BA) was not really permitted by the county as a 3rd bedroom / bath (but as additional square footage only). For short term rental the county is now prohibiting us from renting out at the appropriate occupancy level (3 BR / 6 people), and only allowing us to rent out for 4 people. Adding to this is the potentially significant reduction in value if we were to sell it at some point. For us to properly call it a 3/3 and rent out appropriately we would need to get all septic to current code (which all signs are would be impossible due to neighbor's wells within certain distance). This is going to get pretty complicated quickly. Thanks for any suggestions!
