City Inspector Checked Off Unfixed Items From Previous Report?

[Justin B.]

When the city inspector came through, they dinged the seller for various items, here's some;

-Handrails

-Windows

-Walkway (concrete) is smashed

-Railing (outdoors)

-Electrical indoors and on porches

We drove past the place the other day, and nothing was fixed on the outside, but the seller said it was reinspected by the city, which actually was. The inspector either wasn't checking the old report, or totally glossed over the reinspection.

We don't want these items to come back and haunt us shortly hereafter or later on down the road; what recourse do we have? Do we go above the inspector's head to his supervisor to draw attention to this? It's nice that it passed inspection, we just don't want the seller to get off without doing what he said he would do.

Appreciate any replies
