Occupancy inspection woes
So I have a great fix and flip deal under contract in a hot area in Pittsburgh. The contract states that we must obey municipal requirements to transfer the property at closing. The municipality required an occupancy inspection and they found some downspouts that need rerouted away from the sewer. The seller is unwilling to do the work or pay to have it changed. We got a quote for $1600 to remedy the issue. Should I force the seller to pay full, half, or jump ship and look for another deal?
