You will need one if it is a requirement of a
lender or buyer. Some lenders require one as a condition to lend money
either in a sale or refinance.
You do NOT need a Certificate of Compliance
if your property is a lot of a Subdivision or a parcel of a Parcel Map.
In most cases, you will not
need a Certificate of Compliance to prove your parcel is eligible
for a building permit or grant of approval for development. For
El Dorado County's Policy on parcel eligibility see "Board
of Supervisor's Policy Direction to Staff."
To see if you may need a Certificate of Compliance
prior to obtaining a building permit, enter the 11 digit Assessor's
Parcel Number
(APN) in the form below. If you don't know the APN number, you can
find it by doing a search
on the County Assessor's web page.
