Under contract for a house near a forest fire
We have an accepted, contingent offer for a house. We had our house were selling under contract until the buyer had to pull out, so now we're back on market and have until the end of the month to get back under contrace. The rub comes from the massive Spokane fires we've just had, that came around a mile from the prospective house. The image is in the above red, level 3 area despite what the picture looks like.
They say it will take weeks, not days to resolve the worst zones, which means we might be well under contract with our house not knowing when we can take occupancy of it or if insurance will bind (right now new policies are on hold in that area). I walked the property and except for a few ashes in the yard it looks good but I haven't been inside yet too assess. Unsure if utilities are active or not. Don't know enough about smoke damage or anything to know of like 2nd-hand issues.
Any thoughts on this situation?
