I would work through your agent to have contact either an attorney or the seller agent. Your agent should be able to get you an answer. Unfortnately that will not bring back your mature tree.

Call your attorney and discuss this with him and have him talk to the sellers agent or the sellers.

Nathan - you have no rights against the neighbor, as the house isn't yours. You may have rights against the seller, because the contract calls for the property to be in the same condition as when you made the offer. You are best to consult with the attorney handling the closing and discuss what your options are. If this is a foreclosure and the seller choose the closing attorney (which is common with foreclosures) then you are best to consult with your own real estate attorney regarding this. It really comes down to how concerned you are with the trees removal, and what it would cost to replace those trees with comparable trees.

Good luck.

You should have your buyers agent review your Offer to Purchase Contract.. Trees should not be removed because they are not in removable containers. You should have rights on this one.. Work thru your buyers agent.. That is what she is for. Good luck
