Let’s see, no defensible space, trees/bushes right up to/overhanging the building, looks like some of the trees are/were eucalyptus (oily torches), no roof top sprinklers or water tank, and the list goes on. Note the house in the upper left has a lawn (defensible space), tile roof and probably stucco walls and is still standing.

Yet I’ve also seen houses with the recommended precautions burn too. The fire, fuel, terrain, and wind ALL have a hand in it.
Sicne it was a "forest fire" why did the house burn but no trees?

I think what you are missing is that none of the foilage outside the property shows any fire damage.

So the question is, did he set the fire himself for insurance purposes or because he wanted to start new?

Already addressed and I still have doubts. Unfortunately one picture may be worth a thousand words, but still doesn’t tell the WHOLE story.

My original comments were geared more towards Fire Resistant property than what May have happened.
