Possible shut off valve somewhere in the line. Tubs don't usually have stops.

how long has the house been empty, assuming it is.

Have you considered hiring a professional to look and give you a estimate,

Or consider the worst, need new lines to those, and ask for a price reduction to cover repair costs, Or even ask seller to fix this before you close.
