Until you decide to do anything like build, you have no obligations as a new buyer to your township office about your property besides paying your taxes.
Many people purchase wood lots, bang up a cabin before the Township finds out and flip them to a new owner to have legally. Get a tax bill from the seller to show what the taxes are per year. At most they could tax you higher with septic, if they find out, but you still keep it. The integrity of the building should be your biggest concerned if it was done under the radar.
so i wouldnt get fined or inherit his fines that he has for the property if he has them? and i wouldnt have to get a permit for it is what your saying? sorry im a little confused.

Ive never heard of this. Hunt camps are not defined in the building code that Im aware of. My hunt camp is the same as any other seasonal dwelling
Some townships have a minimum size so they can tax you accordingly.

No, you purchase the property under the assumption, what there is legit. If at any time in the future the Township was to find out, you would just be taxed as any other land owner with a legit camp in your township.

If the camp is old the permits probably do not exist anymore. My last house had no permits and my current house has no permit. It's not a big deal

I would get a lawyer to check things out before I buy anything.
