replied 3 months ago@Jay Helms gave you great advice to get quotes from a few local septic guys. Depending on when the tanks/ leach fields were installed could drive a lot of your costs. Regulations could have changed a lot in the meantime and the potential exists that you'll have to install an entirely new system (tank+ leach field).
How did you find out the tanks leak? Does each house have its own system?
Find the best septic company in your area and have them scope the pipes as part of DD. This will answer all of your questions about the health of all the systems and allow you to see what type of expenses you'll end up having.

replied 3 months ago@Josh Carlegis You may want to talk to any contractors and/or companies that have worked on the park. Also, if you talk to some septic companies and any local government entity in your area who may oversee this area if it comes to installation and inspection (such as what @Jay Helms ) mentioned, they may give you a better of idea of what you're getting yourself into. If it's a rough crowd, most likely you will have plumbing issues if they are not trained properly on what can and cannot be put down the drains/toilets. Good luck!
