Non-Load Bearing Wall Removal

Nova Mendoza

Posted

My husband and I purchased a condo as our first live in Flip. We had a non-load bearing wall dividing the living room and dining room that we removed without getting a permit (because we honestly didn’t know we needed one).

We are getting ready to sell our condo soon and want to know if we can still get a permit after the remodel and/or Should we get a permit or just sell it AS IS without a permit.

We do have a stamped letter from a Structual Engineer saying that it was a non load bearing wall. Can this letter be used to permit the wall removal?

Any advice would help.
