Any advice on how to frame damages and enforce against unauthorized occupancy?

I'm a landlord dealing with a former tenant who violated the lease (unauthorized pets, gave only 6 days notice instead of required 30 days) and left property damage exceeding the $1,300 security deposit—total repairs are over $2,400.Initially, we asked the tenant to wait while we completed repairs and calculated costs.

Lease violations going unnoticed Unauthorized occupants, pets, subletting, property damage developing over time.Vacancy costs mounting Every day vacant while you coordinate showings remotely costs money; can't do quick turnarounds.No local advocate during disputes Code violations, neighbor complaints, tenant disputes, neighbor complaints, city inspections, you're fighting battles by phone.These problems don't exist in isolation.

The buyer says in text messages that he is the actual buyer, will not list or market the property, and will not enter the property before closing.However, he refuses to:Add an addendum or put any of this in writing,Modify the wholesale clause, andChange the clause granting unlimited access before closing.He keeps saying it’s a “standard contract.”Would you proceed or consider this a red flag?
