Three situations where a missed permit costs you

Opening a new station

The permit stack for a new build runs 15 to 30 items across federal, state and county agencies. Most first-time owners find the gaps at final inspection.

Expanding to a new state

Requirements differ sharply by state. A permit that is automatic in one state needs a separate agency application in another. The report maps exactly what changes.

Preparing for an inspection

Inspectors do not call ahead. Use the report as a pre-inspection checklist, or hand it to your attorney to confirm what needs attention first.
