5. Bidder expressly warrants the purchase is being made in AS IS CONDITION and solely based upon Bidder’s examination of the Property and without any expressed or implied warranties of the Auction Company or Seller. The property is sold, and the Bidder agrees to accept the Property in its present condition, AS IS, with all faults, in all respects, subject to utility easements, zoning ordinances, and any other restrictions of record.

8. The seller will pay 2024 in 2025 real estate taxes.

Any installments for local improvements not due and payable at closing shall be paid for by the Bidder as they become due. Closing fees, if any, will be shared equally between Seller and Bidder except for those specific to Seller or Bidder, i.e., recording fees.
9. Possession will be day of closing.
10. The risk of loss by damage or destruction to the Property before the closing shall be borne by the seller. In the event any such damage or destruction is not fully repaired before closing, Purchaser, as its option, may either (a) terminate this Agreement or (b) elect to close the transaction, in which event Seller’s right to all insurance proceeds (if any) resulting from such damage or destruction shall be assigned in writing by Seller to Purchaser.
