What happens if my property has unpermitted work?
Unpermitted work doesn't add to the valuation and may impact the offer with:
-
A lower appraised value
-
A cost-to-cure reduction
-
Ineligibility if essential systems—such as a functioning kitchen or bathroom—are missing or unusable
If major unpermitted work affects safety, habitability, or access, the property may not qualify until the issue is resolved or documented.
