[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In picture #2, somebody ripped the stuffing out of the chair. Is it possible the house was ransacked by the owners or somebody else looking for hidden goods?

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. [b]The fact that even the vehicles were left behind suggests the family did not drive away,[/b] 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?)[/quote]

I would not make the assumption 2 based on some vehicles left in the garage, supposedly, according to the description.  They could have driven in one vehicle and left the other 2 behind if they had 3 of them.  Maybe the other ones were not even operational, there are no photos of them.

Clearly description implies the buyer is responsible for junk removal and cleanup.  Whether the family made this mess or someone else is unclear.  If they were leaving in a hurry they could have left a mess and a lot of stuff behind and all the mess, because they don't care.  In foreclosures, people sometimes vandalized the property to make it less desirable for the future owners. [/quote]
