Just got a property under contract and got more problems.

[Nate S.]

I got a property under contract, they called me needing to get of it. Sellers informed me they're behind backed taxes which is the amount I put the contract under for(Not above the comps calculations max offer). The tax lien hasn't been redeemed. Then finding out later when I was taking pictures of the property, neighbor told me someone cleaned it up before it was extremely bad. Finding out the city gave them notice, cleaned it up and just got off the phone with police and mentioned the property she responded "Ew." Telling me they're glad I'm taking care of it(hopefully) They're now putting a $2k clean up bill lien on the property. The best thing I can think of is telling the sellers they need to come up with $2k at closing. I haven't called Water or Electric company yet, guessing they owe money to them as well.
