Would a version of the bike defenses for the doors and walls suffice?
Touch the surface once, you get a static shock - touch it repeatedly and the shock increases in strenght until deactivated.
And the motivation could be that the guy works or worked for the Boss, and overheard Ranma's reason for winning all that money in the underground fighting. As he now knew Ranma had a lot of money, he might not be under the impression that Ranma spent most of his money on property and building supplies - or might conveniently forget it.
"Big home crops up over night = loads of money" kind of philosophy.

Big scary streetfighter who annihilated all the strongest fighters in their area with ease and who has unknown abilities builds a new home. Has proven that he is neither stupid nor careless. He likely has at least an alarm system. Big scary dude sleeps in that home. He will get really pissed if he catches you trying to steal from him. Danger! Danger! Danger!
And your burglar can't be an idiot either or he'd be long rotting in a jail cell. Unless it is some kind of thug who's hard on cash and decided he'd try his hand at something different besides beating people up for money. Breaking into a home and cleaning it out seemed like a good way of getting quick and easy cash to him.
But then the idea of a law-suit shouldn't be the burglar's. You already mentioned Mr Ewing. He should get wind of that attempted break-in and just check it out out of curiosity. He already has a grudge with Ranma, keeping taps on him for revenge purposes doesn't seem that far-fetched. Ewing sees that the burglar is injured and smells a chance at getting back at Ranma.
