The less you need to involve the "civil" courts the better.

I'm not sure who you report it to or what the penalties are (civil or criminal) but she's giving landlords a bad name and should be reported to someone.

If people are still able to get vanilla 30 year fixed Fannie financing, I'd sell that puppy ASAP before structural litigation involving that development becomes more widely known by lenders.

The city also has a civil case filed, likely for that and the water bill.

Not sure how a lien gives you the right to kick out a homeowner, but.......general liability, nor any insurance, is going to cover you for legal proceedings/legal disputes/contract litigation. 

It sounds like you have a good case based on the limited information provided, you can probably find an attorney who will do this for free with the expectation of recovering fees from the property owner.Bonus: you don't have to learn any civil procedure.

For example, a tenant could stayover the night after termination of a fixed term lease just by forking over a Zelle payment on the last day, by surprise - even if there was no disagreement about the end date, and a new renter is scheduled to move in: https://codes.findlaw.com/ca/civil-code/civ-sect-1... : If a lessee of real property remains in possession thereof after the expiration of the hiring, and the lessor accepts rent from him, the parties are presumed to have renewed the hiring on the same terms and for the same time, not exceeding one month when the rent is payable monthly, nor in any case one year.Likewise, a tenant could terminate a periodic lease by giving e.g. a 30-day notice, and - surprise, surprise - instead of moving out, send the next month's rent on the day of the planned move-out.Frankly, I don't believe this was the intent of the law.

Those who love to invest overseas more power to them but it is not in my plans currently.You have to deal with a lot of other things and worry about economic and civil unrest.

Do research and gather pertinent information on which architectural, general contractor, civil engineering, electrical engineering firms have several years of experience in the type of development that you want to pursue.

As for litigation and receiving damages no, I see no way you'd win that.
