It isn't a day on DCUM without someone identifying at least one property on the real estate thread that is not a tear down as a tear down.

Animals could have gotten into the house (squirrels, mice, etc) and ripped out the stuffing

Why *wouldn't* this be a teardown? Big lot, hideous house in bad shape.

But is that the same guy? That was over 15 years ago in New England.

This order excluding a Peter Mitrano from practice before the patent and trademark office certainly could be the same guy, with a VA address (although I don't think it's the house that is the subject of this thread). https://foiadocuments.uspto.gov/oed/0606_dis_2010-06-10.pdf

There are six people who are on the title to this house. Whatever happened here seems sad to me.

The gall of listing it for almost a million. Only in the DC area …

Three things are clear.

1. The family was forced out very suddenly, hence a towel still hanging on the shower rod, and all possessions including children's pictures left behind.
2. The fact that even the vehicles were left behind suggests the family did not drive away, but was hauled off. Maybe arrested and taken away in a police car?
3. The house was very obviously ransacked -- with furniture cushions opened, possessions thrown about, beds moved away from the walls -- in a hasty search for something (drugs? money? evidence?)

We bought a house in Clifton, Va that was a mess. The owners at closing owed their friend who was their real estate agent an IOU for her commission.

They left so much crap in the house that I refused to close. It was awful. Creditors called day and night for the previous owners. What losers.

How did you find this, OP? Wow...

Looks like hoarders episode in the storage areas

Where are the vehicles people mention?

This looks disturbing. I had a question originally why realtor would even take photos of the desperately cluttered spaces where you cannot even see the walls behind all the garbage. Apparently, they just want to sell and have the buyer deal with the junk removal fees as part of "fixing things up".

Description says:
"
The property presents a significant renovation and cleanout opportunity and is being sold strictly as-is, where-is. All contents currently located within the home, basement, garage, and on the property will remain and become the responsibility of the purchaser after settlement. Multiple vehicles currently located within the garage will convey with the sale.
