Property is a 3 family home, was completely gutted and rebuilt prior to my purchase. Original price was $325k the appraisal came back at $300k because it was a 2 family on the tax records. Prior owner was using 2 units wanted to save on W&S so he had it changed. After i purchased it took 20 minutes at the town to get it back to a 3 family.
