Work Permit
When a house changes title while in mid renovation, can the current filing be revised to change the name of the new owner? Is there a need to file a new application to complete the work? It looks like only cosmatic finishing + new kitchens. All major mechanicals seens to be in order.

Thank you Smoky. Your information is very helpful.
You would not have to file a new application, you could close out your current one as the new owner. You should contact the architect or engineer of record to see what is left on the application if you’re not currently working on the project with a contractor.
Also, check on the DoB website to see if your permit is current. If it’s expired, you will need a contractor to open a new permit for you in order to close out the project, even if there’s no actual work left.
