What can affect closing in Wisconsin
Wisconsin law generally lets you sell a house with open code violations. Under Wis. Stat. § 706.22(1)–(3), Wisconsin restricts local rules that make a sale or a buyer's residential occupancy depend on an inspection, repairs, or a related fee. Local authorities can still enforce property standards independently of a sale and enforce state or federal requirements. An existing order or unsafe condition still needs attention.
When you sell to us, we're the buyer, so the repairs become our job.
