[Oakland] Sidewalk Compliance
Hi All,
Looking for some information about the Oakland Sidewalk Compliance. It is stated that a sidewalk compliance certificate needs to be issued prior to the close of escrow, or a provisional certificate can be issued for a 90 day extension.
My question is, if I haven't legally taken possession of the property, what happens if I repair the sidewalk at my expense and the deal falls out of escrow? I am responsible for the repairs based on my purchase agreement. Also, has anyone applied for the provisional certificate? Does the 90 days begin at the close of escrow, or when the certificate is issued?
Thanks!
Calvin
