Anyone filed before closing using seller to sign off on filings?
We are buying a house that needs a complete gut plus and we’d like to shave off as much time as possible. I’ve seen mention of doing this as a way to save time and am wondering if anyone can tell me more or point me in the direction of info? The words I heard were “the buyer makes an application on behalf of the seller as agent for the building permits and seller signs off on filings” – and that we would need to make that part of our contract. Looking for any help/advice. Thanks!!
