I think I also have language in my lease that, if they find any defects upon move-in, they have 5 calendar days to inform me. 

My question is how do I force them to pay the defect in title? 

Usually,   in a cosmetic flip, you expect to not having to deal with major issues/costs, it should be a fairly easy rehab, and your margins might not have room for an unexpected expense an inspector should catch (defective electrical, plumbing, roof, HVAC, etc.).

The listing was about to expire, The agent was fed up with the seller, the seller was out of state, in tax foreclosure, inherited the property and there was title defect we were wiling to accept. 

No such thing as a per say“title clearing” companies....title companies do title searches, and may or may not can cure some defects/issues found, depending on what they are.

You'll learn a ton simply by going through the process and closing on the property.Things that I would attack at this stage:1) Be sure to get an inspection on the property, even if it appears to be in good condition, it will be good to know about any defects before you buy it at $130k. 

Quitclaim deeds are best used to fix title defects or for transfers within the family.

Some dip tubes are made of plastic that have a shorter lifespan than others.It’s defective.

Your underwriting could be off to make the deal look good or there may be some material defect, poor location, etc that you can't see from the Loopnet listing that is causing it to sit on the market.What are you using to underwrite your deals Account Closed?

This, according to the attorney who found 25 defendants to sue for construction defects, said "This was the worst, most ham-handed, Keystone Cops crap I have ever seen."
