The trucks broke all of the drainage pipes under the drive way, they are still able to allow water to flow but the edges of the pipes are sharp so if tire hit it the wrong way then it may put a hole in tire of a vehicle.

If my buyers walk then I will be forced to sue them for any monetary damages that will cause as well.

Are there any potential risks after I take ownership, like monetary penalties from the city?

You are digging yourself a bigger and bigger hole each time.

What this means is the trustor has zero obligation to the lender past the property in the case of a foreclosure the lender cannot receive any kind of monetary judgment against the owner.. and for the benefit of anyone reading this.. ( I am sure you know what a purchase money loan is.) 

Then you get down the rabbit hole of integrating platforms and automating your workflows which takes a lot of massaging and some technical skill. 

but you also want to create an incentive for people to stay.From a tenant's perspective, there is also a monetary cost to moving, not to mention the effort it takes all the way down to the little annoying things like  changing the zip codes on your credit cards or address on your drivers license.The real money is made in the equity column. 

I know it sounds sketchy, but I don't know anything about the business and quite frankly if I were to just go at it alone I would more than likely miss some things and find myself in a hole.

Or are we talking holes dug everywhere, plants/ shrubs killed, no grass just bare dirt?  

Of course there is the rabbit hole of owner carry options too, but the above is the most straight forward option.
