If any structure or part thereof is vacant and unfit for human habitation, occupancy or use, but is not in danger of structural collapse, the Administrator shall post a placard of condemnation on the premises and shall order the structure closed up so it will not be an attractive nuisance to the public. Upon failure of the owner to close up the premises within the time specified in the order, the Administrator shall cause the structure to be closed through any available public agency or by contract or arrangement with private persons or contractors. The cost for closing up the structure shall be charged against the real estate upon which the structure is located and shall constitute a lien on such real estate.
