Not to rain on the parade, but I assume you'll write in a holdback of some of the proceeds until it was remediated without issue / undisclosed costs?

We did that for our well, because it failed the potable water test twice. So we withheld $10K, which wouldn't have been enough to drill a new one, but would have been better than nothing.
you are correct, both lawyers are aware of this from both parties.
i personally want to make sure its done correctly by professional.
