To permit or not to permit ??

This can be very expensive and time-consuming decision. I've been flipping homes in Dallas for a 6 years. I continually struggle as to whether to get permits or not. When I do it usually costs me two to three weeks and thousands of dollars (i.e. Inspectors arbitrarily telling you to rewire the house). On the other hand you must disclose whether you got permits or not when you sell. I have listened to all the BP Podcasts and I'm surprised this is not more of a topic for flippers... To permit or not to permit?
