Come on, it's clear this article is just a way for them to find a buyer for the mural. If someone puts a painting on your property without your permission it's called graffiti and you have the right to just paint it over.
Why will they not do that? Did Banksy come over one day with a contract saying "hey, I'd like to paint here, sign on the dotted line you'll care for the thing forever"? I doubt that. They probably are trying to extract as much value from it as possible (as anyone else would in their position). Do I blame them? Of course not. Do I belive their "struggle"? Not really.
