RESEARCH YOUR PROPERTY- BEFORE NOT AFTER

As a homeowner or business owner, you've invested significant time, energy, and money into your property. Every day, you rely on the structural integrity of buildings at home and work. Investigate your investment thoroughly before purchase, not afterward.

Determine if there are code violations or zoning issues with the property. The adage "buyer beware" becomes particularly relevant when problems emerge later. Verify that all construction work was approved and certified by local officials with proper documentation.

Consider these important questions:

• Has an environmental (21E) assessment been conducted?
• Is asbestos present in the building?
• Are there structural concerns that need addressing?

Problems can be avoided with proper due diligence. Engineers, architects, and other professionals may be needed if work was completed illegally or violates building codes. Your investment could be jeopardized if the building doesn't meet compliance standards.

HOW DOES THE PERMIT PROCESS WORK?

Permits are typically required for various construction activities. Always check with your local department as requirements vary by municipality. The process is generally similar for building, electrical, and plumbing work. Fire prevention and sprinkler permits may also require approval from the local fire department.

Common projects requiring permits include:

• Additions and new construction
• Alarm systems and parking areas
• Decks, sheds, and insulation
• Demolitions and temporary structures
• Fireplaces, woodstoves, and swimming pools
• Most renovations and mechanical systems
• Egress doors and prefabricated systems
• Windows, plumbing/electrical systems
• Siding and roofing
