AndyGump Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 If you need to legalize it I assume then that the house is already turned into two separate units, correct? There are some pitfalls to that that you need to take into consideration. Such as, the city may want you to remove some walls to verify framing and drywall, etc. Andy.

glennw Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Down here in Oz, the units would have to be separated by appropriate soundproofing and fireproofing. Depending on the configuration, this can be very difficult to achieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
