There's no clear motive. I guess he's keeping the company alive long enough to sell off more of it's assets, but it seems like a relatively low yield operation to me.

Perhaps he's operating on a level we can't comprehend

Strip the assets beyond the bankruptcy code's 2 year fraudulent conveyance lookback period. Fix the problem by extending it to 10 years for corporate fiduciaries or something.

There is a pretty clear motive to me, tons and tons of prime real estate in the heart of pretty much every community that has more than ten thousand residents.
