Not having a C of O doesn't mean that you can't sell your home; it just means that the new owner can't live in the house until proper repairs have been made and it passes a home inspection. But some jurisdictions such as New York state make an exception for single-family homes.
Owners must make sure a building or unit has a Certificate of Occupancy. In some circumstances, the Department may determine that a property is safe to occupy, but there are outstanding issues requiring final approval.

(2) Certificates Of Occupancy If selling, be sure to have the necessary certificate(s) of occupancy for your residence. A certificate of occupancy is usually required for the structure and any subsequent improvements, e.g., an addition, a new deck, converting a porch (or garage) into a room, a swimming pool, etc.
A TCO is the easiest to obtain, and the whole process takes about 6 months, or more, to complete.
If a building doesn't have a proper Certificate of Occupancy, the city could theoretically issue a vacate order at any time. No one may legally occupy a building until the DOB has issued a CO or Temporary Certificate of Occupancy.
The Law requires landlords to have a certificate of occupancy to collect rent or evict tenants for non-payment of rent. A certificate of occupancy is a document that proves that the building is reasonably safe and clean. This rule applies to buildings that have three or more units built after 1952.
The final CO is permanently valid, unless significant structural changes are made to the building.
