CO for your home

Does anyone know if you receive a copy of the certificate of occupancy when you purchase a home? the town says I can buy a copy for $100! I need the copy to give to the town! It makes no sense to me

When we bought our house the homeowners never got COs for the work that they did. So they had to get them before we closed and we got the original copy at the closing.

Re: CO for your home

If the house has valid C/Os, you should be able to get a copy from your attorney. It would have shown up in the title report.

Re: CO for your home

Our sellers didn't have a CO for a sunroom added to the house, and it took 9 MONTHS of fighting with the Town of Hempstead in order to get it. We have the original.
