Legalizing a room?

Sounds a bit scammish. It's really not an issue unless you want to sell, and even then, it's not an issue if you discount enough or explain the situation. The room could already be legal (i.e. within the code) but it's the plans with the DOB are not current (very common).

Ask around on the Brownstoner forum.

thanks nyc10023! how are you doing?

I've never understood the why but I remember when looking at single family homes in Los Angeles the realtor would always mention if a structure or a room was not "legal" so I'm following this with great curiosity. Perhaps a realtor or lawyer or architect, etc. will have the answer.

Hanging in there, glamma. Brownstoner forum is a great place to post this question, as non-recorded changes to buildings happen all the time in bstone Bk.

nyc10023, weren't you thinking of having a baby? Did you change your mind?
