Depends on the age of the house and additions, especially if any of the additions were built before December 1996.
In some cases, additions that survive a pre-purchase inspection will magically become permanent despite a lack of permits. I know of some in Hilo. Once property taxes are assessed on the extra square footage, nobody goes back to verify.
County also assesses property taxes on unpermitted buildings, which is a little like having the cake and eating it too.
