It was assumed, due to the damage at the hospital, that Peter was the victim of foul play along with his nurse. I think, I need to review the episode but I think they pinned everything on Kate. And her death was chalked up to another animal attack.

Isaac is classified as a runaway.

Derek sleeps in his lair or in whatever rooms remain, like the basement where he was held captive.

Judging by the size of Hale House and the assumed size of the family I would say he got quite an inheritance and several life insurance payouts.

There us plenty of information in the episodes to fill in most of the blanks. If there are other explanations and the writers decide they're necessary they'll provide them in future.
