I did an interior 2nd opinion last week on one where I found all the paperwork for the former owner's business - a collection agency.

I thought it a bit ironic...

Worst I've seen in an actively-marketed REO...the toilet bowl with about 10 dead mice in it.


How about a half-full pool with hundreds of live wolf spiders in the water?

My buyer was interested (it wasn't my listing) but it turned out to all be in a flood plain. So I never figured out how the best way is to get rid of the spiders....

Some places stock pools with little fish that eat bugs as a mosquito contol measure. Maybe in your area they use spiders?

The beer bottles I find are usually full, but not with beer, unless you consider it recycled beer.

I forgot about that one, I haven't seen it in a while.

For a while all of mine had Andrew Lussman's "Own Real Estate Free and Clear" tapes.

JGizzi's post about bicycles reminded me of another one a few years ago in Florida.
Detached garage was full of bicycle parts in boxes, mostly frames, but a few handlebars and wheels.
Had the PP company clean it out. About a week later, get a call from a neighbor about a broken window on the garage. Someone broke out the window and threw 2 more bicycles into the garage, frames with one wheel. Called the cops to make a report and got the world's dumbest cop. I wanted to report the vandalism. He was more concerned about the bikes, like I stole them and broke out the window. I had to prove I had a key to the garage.
Wasted two hours on it.

old trophies (like bowling) I have seen piles of moldy animal skins. I found a closet full of fireworks. One of the strangest was about 25 bags of toe nail clippings. lots of toys and clothes and porn.

Weirdest thing I've ever found - a broken jet ski in the living room. Darned if I know how they got that in there. The thing I seem to see in every REO - pizza place magnets on the fridge.
