Most of that $30k was used to update the AC, build a shed/workshop for my wife's carved wood item business that she recently started, dig a well for the sprinklers, remove a dead tree, and remodel the kitchen after a plumbing leak developed in the foundation of our home a few months after moving in.  

@Matt Leber I paid almost 6 grand this year to have a company dig up a 15 foot section of pipe that was down 10 to 12 feet.

As far as managing his rental, I would also dig into that a little more. 

All that to say: Figure out what you want to do, dig in and learn everything you can about that, make it happen (take action).Good luck in your journey! 

Dig further and you find the restraining order filed against their third ex, with lurid details of his abusive and threatening behavior over the course of their marriage.

Then you can do the paint I'm guessing.I would not dig out an entrance unless it was a garden level on a walk out.  

Once I start digging a bit more, I find out that his name is the only one on title and the divorce is finalizing in a week or so.

@Nelson Taylor not to dig up old wounds but I’m curious how you lost your shirt in the crash so that we/ I can learn from it for the next one?

If he hit it putting in a fence , the pipe isnt deep , hand digging will expose it , and 2 fernco's and a piece of pipe fixes it . 

Did your inspector dig away some soil at the base of the crack in order to see if there was a corresponding crack at its bottom terminus?
