So I'm looking at a small 2br house withh a "long term tennanct"  but the seller states that the owner will be responsible for the Certificate of Occupancy and all certifications.  And "tenant is not to be disturbed"   What could this possibly mean?

@John S Lewis, that is weird, its kind of like a paradox. How can the inspector come and give it a clear certificate of occupancy  when they can't even come in to inspect it? If PA and NJ landlord laws are about the same, you need the Certificate of Occupancy to be able to rent (I know its required in PA). Have the realtor talk to the seller's agent and clarify what your intentions are and need of the tenant to comply so as to be able to close on the property.
