Open city orders on property - please advice

[Jaideep Balekar]

Happy new year everyone!

I’m a new investor and am seeking some advice regarding a property that I’m in the process of purchasing.

During the due diligence process, I’ve discovered that the property has two open city orders on it -

1. Back-flow preventer device and

2. Electrical permit (IBI).

Can someone please tell me what this means? Are the sellers supposed to close all open orders before selling? What should be my next step to deal with this open order issue? Appreciate all the help!
