  I would warn against anyone who is thinking of buying, building, or renovating a home in Glendale Heights. It feels like the mob is involved with the inspectors office after selling my home after living in the city for 5 years, and working with the Director of Community Development (Joanne Kalchbrenner) the Assistant Director of Community Development (Tom Bialas).
  
  We bought the home from a flipper who renovated it after purchasing the home as a foreclosure. During our ownership we made changes to the finishes (painting walls and cabinets, floors, and installed a dishwasher) but did not do anything major.
  
  We went to sell our home this month, and city inspectors informed us that we were in trouble because we did not secure permits for the major renovations. WE NEVER MADE THESE CHANGES AS THEY WERE DONE BY THE FLIPPER WE BOUGHT THE HOME FROM!
  
  We even have the MLS listing for the past 3 sales of the home proving we never made these changes, but no one wants to see this documentation.
  
  They forced us to pay for pernits on work that we did not do, and even had to pay to expedite the reinspection process. After all is said and done we had to pay $9,000 to correct issues on work that was done by the prior owner.
  
  It seems that they issued transfer stamps to the flipper we bought from without completing an inspection on his work as we never saw the inspection results or received escrow money for the repairs like we should have.
  
  I would suggest that avoid this city and their inspection office and move to another city in dupage county. It just is not worth it!
