Sadly nobody looking for them on resales. My house had hot tube, luckily I got rid of it. But to find out the property was out of compliance due to no permit Nowhere in closing paper work or it even mentioned hot tube. But, it was selling point.
Luckily my resale had no construction or landscaping changes which IMO most new owner’s of resales wouldn’t know what to check anyway cause the trust (not good word) things are in order due to tittle search and closing requirements.
Like I said my opinion seems like few times year these problems come up in news. Latest one the sidewalk on historic side that been down down for 20 plus years and now all sudden out of compliance?
