Survey: Your standard approach to un permitted additions

Hey everyone, I was just working on my company's standard operating procedures and wanted to run a quick survey for those of you who flip.

For homes that have un permitted additions what is your most likely course of action?

1. leave the un permitted addition as is, but ensure it is safe, and declare to the next buyer when done rehabbing

2. Work with the city to get the permits drawn up and permitted so the house is completely legit

3. Not even consider flip projects with non permitted additions

4. Return the house to original floor layout

Keep in mind, these are homes that you are going to re sell and not keep and hold in portfolio for rental. Thank you.
