I found something and thought I'd share in case it helps others.

I had this same issue: a message saying "System Error" when trying to place a lot I built myself, I was only moving it to another save file.

These darkened (completely black) pictures were the ones causing the issue. I only had to delete them and save the build again, and then I could place it with no issue at all.
