Notable Sale | 3122 8th Street
What Makes It Notable?
Due Diligence
Assuming a demo permit is issued, the cost to deconstruct will likely add another $50K to $80K to the project cost. In Boulder, homes can no longer be scraped into a dumpster and carted away to the landfill. Our regulations require reusable material be saved and repurposed.
The question of whether a seller should obtain a demo permit in advance or not often comes up with listing a home like this one. We usually recommend getting the permit. Removing that risk from the table is usually worth the cost, and an intelligent, well-advised buyer would make the contract contingent on the permit being issued, anyway. Counting on reckless, uneducated buyers is not a good strategy.
