REO under contract, now vandalized. What now?

I placed a bank-owned property under contract last week. I went by to take some additional photos and get some repair measurements and found that the back door was kicked in and house was ransacked.

I called the listing agent but she didn't seem to interested in doing anything about it.

What does the law say about this? Who is responsible for repairs?

What steps should I take next?

My closing is set for Feb. 25

Thanks in advance for any insight into this problem.
