If I sell my property, is the new owner able to take advantage of the expedited processes and exemptions?

The in-kind rebuild property rights “go with the land” and, in the event of a change of ownership for a property affected by the Woolsey Fire, the new owner is able to take advantage of the expedited processes and CDP exemptions if all deadlines for submitting a rebuild application are met. However, if the  owner, at the time of the fire, qualified for a fee waiver, this benefit is non-transferable.
