Sell a House With Code Violations in Dinuba, CA

Code Enforcement in Dinuba

Inside Dinuba city limits, code problems go to the Code Enforcement division of the City of Dinuba's Planning and Development department, reachable at (559) 591-5921. It enforces city, zoning, and building codes, including substandard housing and abandoned vehicles. Dinuba also makes homeowners responsible for keeping up the alley behind their house.

Just outside city limits, it is Tulare County RMA Code Compliance at (559) 624-7060 that handles code problems instead of the City.

Code enforcement costs that go unpaid can turn into a lien on the property. A lien does not stop a sale. It gets paid off out of the sale at closing, through escrow, before you get your money. Our page on selling a house with liens explains how that works.

Our licensed crew, House Junkies Construction (CA LIC#1077593), pulls permits and works through city processes like these on every house we renovate. That is why we can buy a Dinuba house with open violations without asking you to fix anything first. See our full page on selling a house with code violations.
