Can a lender pull plug on financing if there are illegal additions?

Posted by Alfred -- SoCal on January 26, 2010 at 11:48 AM

No experience with this because my past rehab projects have always been clean and straight forward.

There is an REO duplex which is a potential buy in LA but there are some non-permitted or illegal additions (laundry room, closet of master bedroom and shower of master bath are extended out onto the balcony... and, there is a garage converted into a bedroom, non-permitted I'm sure, that has a lot of water damage in floor and lower walls, because driveway slopes down towards it.)

If a buyer's lender becomes aware of illegal additions could they halt the financing or is it just up to the buyer?

Even if I cleaned these additions up, could they prevent a sale from occuring?

Also, could I be forced to tear all of this out and put the house back to its original permitted configuration?

Any other feedback or experience would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
