    Has anyone tried recently to get their C/O for a new house/building in Brooklyn? I’m having a really hard time (understatement!), each time they give me another run around why it’s being denied (for reason that really doesn’t make any sense!)!!

    VERY FRUSTRATED!

    Was work done without a permit? Was work not on the permit done? How much deviation from the permit did the inspector find? If you have a building permit and everything was built according to approved plans and is up to code, you shouldn’t get a run around.

    What does your architect say?

    What does your attorney say?

    You probably need a little “grease”.

    “If you have a building permit and everything was built according to approved plans and is up to code, you shouldn’t get a run around.”

    Not entirely true. The city is a pain to deal with (I know, I work with them daily). Obviously, if everything is up to code (and done legally) your chances of being denied a CO are slimmer, but nothing with the City comes easy.

    Remember, you are dealing with a City that is understaffed and underfunded, in these areas it shows.
