Do I need a permit to change electrical outlets, switches and light fittings in colorado springs?
We have just purchased a house which we intend to fix up and resell. All the work is cosmetic stuff, we will not be adding any electrical outlets or removing any, do I need a permit to change the old outlets, switches and light fittings?

I won't tell if you don't. Not in most states. Since these are just cosmetic updates and nothing structural go ahead. Good luck with the flip.

to be honest you need a permit to change about anything (im a plumber by trade and in southern California you need a permit to change something as simple as a p-trap under a sink.... seriously) .... but on stuff like that its pretty much safe and a no brainier..... just be careful and test the outlets you wanna change before you take them apart and rewire them the same exact way
3 :
you should not need a permit, however to be on the safe side it may not hurt to call your local building inspector to find out
4 :
One word: NO.
