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.
