In contract - found out it's an illegal multi family?

Hi all - I'm pretty sure we will be walking away from this deal but looking for any similar experiences? We are in contract for a triplex - have already paid the appraisal, inspection, et cetera. The appraiser reached out today and said the conversion of the single family house was actually never permitted / approved through the city. Learning experience here as I never thought to check for these permits Myself... is it me who dropped the ball here? Very bummer because we've been looking for a multi familY in this area (by family) for a few years. property is in Michigan.
