I just bought a house that I want to turn into a rental. How do I go about getting it inspected?
Submit the property registration form to the Building Department and the office secretary will schedule an inspection date. Also be sure to look at the guidelines for rental properties to assure you're in compliance with the code requirements.

All requests to reschedule must be submitted to the Building Department in writing at least 72 hours in advance. Requests will be reviewed with consideration given to certificate expiration date, number of past requests and nature of outstanding violations, (if any). Typically, requests will not be granted if there are outstanding safety violations in a common area or occupied unit. Find more information on the Rental Inspections page.
