Can you receive a stop work order after a project has been finished and listed?

WashingtonConstruction Contract

After I finished remodeling a home, staged it, and placed it on the market, i had a few showings and received 7 offers. On my offer review date, the City Inspector placed a stop work order on my house ordering me to stop all work - it was apparent that the project was already completed. There's nothing to stop.

It may be prudent to call an attorney in your area directly at their office and ask them if the SWO is enforceable or not. Here is Levelset's directory of Washington attorneys https://www.levelset.com/payment-help/experts/construction-lawyer/washington/
