You can request that the Seller participate in helping to fund cash to close. Often times this requires an increase in purchase price.

Why not make a counter offer to the cash offer? If that is their highest and best offer, consult with your agent to see if they feel that the buyer at 400K will waive the appraisal or bridge the gap if the home does not appraise.

You can get a court order by going back to court. If he does not comply, he would be in contempt of court or even be required to leave the premises totally. A judge can also require him to clean up or grant you the right to hire someone to be paid for by him.
