See, generally, predatory lending, securities fraud, "company towns" (especially up in your neck of the woods), and environmental regulations.This, on the other hand, is government looking for a problem (mostly because a council member  got postcards and letters.

I like your policy of giving 10% back for the environmental & social causes.

Anyway its somewhat complicated - so buyer beware    - but overall a sewer system should be great for the area as in-n-out, trader joes, etc.. will be able to do traditional builds rather then complicated septic system/environmental reviews etc.

When I started out I made a conscious effort to go to every meeting these groups had to offer, learning as much as possible and meeting everyone I could. 

I have recently become financially conscious after getting myself out of a mental stalemate caused by what felt like unmanageable student debt.

Of course, you get the property in its current condition, so you may inherit bad maintenance or environmental issues.
