Can I sell my Acworth house fast if the basement apartment is not legal?
An unpermitted basement apartment does not have to keep an Acworth house off the market, but it has to be disclosed and it changes how the home gets marketed and appraised. Lenders and appraisers generally will not count unpermitted square footage or rental income toward the home's value, and buyers using certain loan types may ask questions about it. Being upfront about the space, rather than letting an inspector find it, keeps a fast sale from stalling. Joel Boss will walk you through how to price and disclose it correctly.
Still have a question?
Ask Joel directly. No form, no obligation, and a real answer even when the answer is that now is not the time to sell.
