I always get permits, they protect me in many ways. I would not do more than change a light fixture without a permit. The inspectors know more about building than I ever will. One inspector, for the minimal price of a building permit designed a new foundiation for a hillside house I have. I have several rental houses ahd when a city or the county adopts a residential rental inspection program I always volunteer my house to be first. They find health and safety issues I never thought of, allowing me to correct them. To much liability to do work without permits. If someone get hurt you don't have much of a defense. If you sell you have to disclose and accept a lower price. If I have to talk after a disaster in my house hurts or kills someone I won't to say " I got permits for everything I did and the inspector signed it all off, here is the paper work". Not a perfect defense by any measure but much better than trying to get a jury to believe I thought I didn't need a permit. Also, I would never give an inspector that was just trying to do his job a bad time. I would pick on someone my own size and go to the city council and try to get the rules changed. I have also seen inspectors say tear it all apart so I can see the wires and connectors. If you don't you will never get an occupancy permit. All that means is you will never be able to insure, finance or sell the house.
