They will tell you if it is an issue and if there is a remedy to bring it up to code.

Because title has transferred foreclosure is the remedy for default.Contract for Deed or Land Contract where the seller continues to hold title but finances the sale until the entire amount is paid off much like a car loan.  

I finally found an insurer, and was able to close, but I had to remedy those conditions immediately.Note also that home inspectors will warn you left and right that they are not required to detect building code violations/deficiencies.  

Hopefully they get them out of that unit for you here shortly, or you are going to have to speak with your agent and a lawyer about remedies and solutions. 

Before the sale of the home, I was informed that a large assessment was upcoming to remediate the building which was going to require at least 35k from each owner.

They must provide the tenant a certain amount of time to remedy the current situation (in this case, payment of two months rent) within a certain time period (3 Days).  

Without that, the remedy (if allowed) would be a judicial foreclosure (think more time and more money).

Any one know what this could be and how to remedy?

For all these reasons  @Rocky V. sub too in the wrong hands are about as dangerous a thing you can do.what you needed to do was a wrap with a notice of default provision in that you would have all the contact info and your 3p authorization up front before you closed so you couild remedy this.you will need to refi and pay bank off is what you will need to do.. or come up with cash or find a JV partner that will provide the KISH to take care of this.its usually the sellers that get screwed in these deals but buyers can too.. in the exact manner that is happening to you

Remediation?
