Option B sounds like the most prudent choice. Gather some information before making any moves. Don't want to step in any metaphorical potholes, you know?

Hmm, I dunno. Maybe the bank should just declare the property as 'abandoned and spooky' and see what happens. *wink wink*

I think option D is the best choice. If the company has clearly abandoned the property, the bank should report it as such.
