Help them stay in their homes, give them a break and rent to them when no one else is, give them a free car... whatever you think is going to help them.That limits how much you can lose on them, limits how much is going to be stolen from you, and probably limits the number of lawsuits filed against you if you run it as a registered charity.

I do not want to go forward with a law suit against them if there is any chance I can get tagged with this listing thing.

If you have your personal business and several properties in one LLC, if something goes bad (a lawsuit) all of your properties could be in jepordy.

Especially if there are damage claims or lawsuits involved.

If the seller is not able to pay the rest of his/her loan within the allotted amount of time the lender gives them, they could then be subject to a lawsuit.

That includes taxes, insurance, vacancies, advertising, utilities paid by the owner, management, maintenance, entity maintenance, legal fees, evictions, damage done by the tenants in excess of the security deposit, capital expenses, lawsuits, etc, etc, etc.

People who have a lot of money are targets for lawsuits (legalized extortion).

They almost never actually sue, and being evicted without having any place to go is not grounds for a lawsuit, and the judges in Oregon aren't going to have any sympathy.

The property is 4300 sq. ft, 4 bdrms, 3.5 bth, in-law suite, gourmet kitchen, cathedral ceilings, wrap around deck...and so on.

Equity exposes you to frivoluous lawsuites, 3.
