Will an open permit stop my closing in Sandy Springs or Woodstock?

An open or expired permit can genuinely stop or delay a Sandy Springs or Woodstock closing, since a lender or title company may require it resolved before funding, and a buyer's attorney will typically flag it during the title search. Resolving it means either finishing the inspection the original permit required or filing to close it out with the local building department. Sellers who discover an open permit early have more time to fix it before it threatens a contract deadline. Ask your closing attorney to check for open permits as early as possible.
