if you move/add walls, touch plumbing(not including change faucets), electrical(new wires
), open new windows, add big/higher decks etc. you need to apply building permission from city. check with ottawa.ca they should have a detailed list.

民不举，官不究。举了的话，麻烦不小
We are going to buy a house around university to rent to students, , there are space to put more rooms, bathroom and even kitchen in it(basement), I am still wondering if I should apply for the permit or not. Does anybody know that how much more I need to spend on "the permit"? Thanks!

can you put in a separated entrances for your basement and if your windows in basement is big enough to be used as 2nd exit? if you put more rooms in your basement, will each room have its own window? you can put in a kitchen in basement, do you have room for a living room? how easy to fire separate between your main floor and your basement? now city allows to put in a basement apartment in a house (some lot size etc. requirements has to be met) and if you can do that, you can put 3-4 students in upper unit, and 3-4 students in lower unit, let two student groups sign their own lease that has all names on the lease, then you won't have a rooming house issue from the city. (please verify the info i typed in here with city bylaw). if you simply put in more rooms, you might get some trouble from city-bylaw for rooming house use, fire department for fire hazard/exit issue for rooms in basement, if you ever get some complains from your neighbor(s). further more, you will find there are very few insurance companies will like to insure your property if you tell them the truth that you're renting to students as rooming house, or if you get one, it won't be cheap

I never thought this question --"how easy to fire separate between your main floor and your basement?" I thought just lock the door.
Thanks Uglyducking so much for your useful info. Now should I call the permit office first?
