Negotiate the price of the work out of the purchase price of the house.
If it's not to code or not permitted or both gives you leverage.
You need to be really careful about buying a problem.
Back on LI it was in ground home heating oil tanks.
I walked on a pretty much perfect house because the seller would not spend the $800 to have two in ground tanks decommissioned before sale.
Before sale was the key. Even if I bought it and had it done 5 minutes after closing on the place if it had already been leaking I bought the problem. Not cheap to remediate.
