Current Property Managers response to debris on property

Morning. We are having an issue with a prospective property manager. We will be buying an 8 unit that has a current manager. 

After going into contract we noticed a pile of debris on the property. The contract states "as is" but also states that 2 units will be rent rent ready and rented.

The units are rented before we close early next month. I am disputing the rent ready part. On our personally managed properties a pile of debris would not constitute rent ready. 

When I brought this up to the PM their reply was " "I guess an evicted tenant did brick work on the side and was nice enough to leave a pile of bricks behind"

I questioned if the property manager is ok with the property looking like then and their response was "


It was from a previous tenant and they are not (PM company removed) bricks to move. They were never instructed to do anything with them." So if this is their response when they are currently taking care if the property, am I wrong to question using this company going further?  Everything I've seen on this company is positive, but this is my first time actually dealing with them.  Thanks
