City Code Lien on Association- Ft. Lauderdale Question

[Account Closed]

So we are a week away from selling one of your units in Oakland Park Fl. Apparently, the city just put a Lien on the Association for Code Violation. The city stated this for a partial release- which is crazy.

The City’s policy for doing a partial release, per code case, on a specific unit: The City of Oakland Park will accept 5% of the purchase price, plus fees for recording and release of the liens on a specific code case.

The Associations attorney is allegedly communicating with the City as a reduction and is confident that they will have an Agreement within 'a couple of weeks.' 

Is there anyway to complete this sale on time to make closing agent happy? If it matters- it is a cash buyer.

Thank you in advance
