Building Permit Records
How Building Permit Records checks a building permit records
Quick answer. A building permit record is the city’s file for a specific job: who applied, what work was allowed, which inspections passed, and whether a certificate of occupancy issued. Search by address in that city.
Read the permit, then the inspections
The useful fields are the permit number, issue date, work description, contractor, and inspection results. A permit that was issued and never inspected is not the same as a finaled permit. Say which one you found.
Certificate of occupancy is often a separate document. Do not assume the permit printout is the CO. Ask the building department which document they treat as permission to occupy.
