I have seen cases where owners of the property will do that for the insurance claim, it’s hard to prove it’s not the squatters that started the fire, then they can tear it down more easily and build new structures. People squatting in abandoned buildings can definitely start fires though. How many buildings normally burn down in your area? 6 in one place in one year seems like a lot more than should be expected.
We know there was an arsonist operating a few miles away last year. They arrested him for starting a fire, and then released him the next day, and so a lot of us believe it’s him or another serial arsonist, yeah. But as you say, there are many rea$ons old houses burn down :(
