The numbers don't quite seem to make sense to me for a 30 year mortgage, so I'm guessing you must be on a 15 year mortgage in order to have such high payments. Is that correct? For reference, I bought a 560k townhouse 3 years ago with 25% down (so a 417k loan) and my monthly PITI + HOA is just under 2400. If the mortgage term is 15 years, the condo could potentially make financial sense if you rent out one of the rooms. That's what I have been doing for 3 years, and it has worked out very well. If the mortgage is 30 years and your costs are so high, I can't see owning the condo making a lot of financial sense.
If you'd rather not have a roommate, it seems to me renting is currently much more favorable than buying in your part of San Diego based on the prices you quoted. 825/month sounds like a very favorable rent for a studio in an area where 2 bedroom condos going for almost 500k. For reference, a studio would likely be in the 1400-1800/month range in my part of the DC area and a nice 2 bedroom condo of that size would likely be around 500k. So owning a condo appears far more favorable where I live than where you do, and after running the numbers I still would not have purchased my townhouse if I hadn't planned to rent out a room to recoup some of the costs.
In terms of the litigation, it seems like all you can do is list the property, gauge the level of interest, hope the litigation is over quickly, and potentially list the place in the spring if you aren't able to sell now. Best of luck!
