Abandoned all Belongings and i Don't Know Why | Urban Exploring Abandoned House 

Hard to believe, she wouldn't want a few things! Photos, clothes ! Mementos

I'm done watching these! Just shows other people's misery !

I heard this happens in these bad neighborhoods. People can't leave their homes...even for vacation....without squatters taking over and destroying the place.

Heartbreaking. Hubby saw this all the time as a housing inspector. People would just move in while families were out of town for a week or two. We personally had to deal with a squatter in our old property a few years ago. We hired a contractor friend to fix it up for sale, basically some finishing work we just couldn't handle. We had no idea he was using drugs and went into a downward spiral, squatting in the property and dealing from it. APD was no help, even though he was known to them and they knew he was dealing. It took us 5 months to get him evicted. In addition, he busted windows and they were never fixed. He just threw boards up inside. The pipes were broken and taken for scrap, so between water damage and the total destruction of the property, we ended up walking away. Insurance wanted to treat it as each issue as separate claims since we had no single date of damages. We lost $25k in positive equity, and total loss was approx $70k.

Great to see this update! I hope the daughter goes back and retrieves the family antiques, heirlooms and pictures. I will keep this family in my prayers too!

- JAVA - all those memories

Java+Not Elderly. you must be crazy to think it or you haven't been watching just typing sentiment off the top of your head

Agree

+Alisa R. aka Vampfaye Hey Alisa! Yeah the owner seemed to have health problems. I seen a bunch of medicine and stuff. I'm sure you seen this kind of stuff all the time in EMS

that explanation makes so much sense. Parents grow old, live by themselves/elf at some point. Health problems (even mental illness or other that makes you become not responsible anymore to live on your own). Then they die and there is no one to reclaim the home.

+Natalie Thomas Thank you very much Natalie.

Too bad no one else does

@@chaosdemonwolf1 Well, "some" don't. I keep reading comments by people telling explorers, "You should've taken that; I would've." That's the reason the good ones don't tell their viewers where these places are located. That's Integrity, with a capital "I."

@@oldenweery7510 I agree. Leave just footprints and nothing else. Explore but don't take. That's just how it is

I agree, and then there are some who blast your eardrums with inappropriate music.

+Ikilleditwithfire I love abandoned houses like this because so much stuff is left behind. I wonder if she had too much inside the home for family to take.

Exactly. I was a mail carrier and would see this too. Sometimes they have lost contact with their children. Sometimes they don't have children or family that cares about them. Also, it is expensive to rent a uhaul and drive it across country if family lives far away. A lot of times the family doesn't want anything. I've seen so many times after the elderly person passes the family rents a dumpster and throws everything in it. They don't want to bother with selling or giving things away. I never understood that. I've seen nice furniture in the dumpster. Once they empty out the house it goes up for sale as is. The area I worked houses sold in a heartbeat. Any house, regardless of condition because the land was so valuable. Contractors would pay cash, then bulldoze the house and rebuild a McMansion on the land. It would sell quickly. The land and homes in and around Boston is very valuable.

+theVHSvlog I think you know that common reason...EC corruption

theVHSvlog:Yes,the answer to that is"Terror" To steal a line from a Monty Python picture: Run away~Run away......

More than likely bank repossession. PPL, especially older folks, think the bank they've been with their whole lives won't come in, lock the door on all their possessions & boot'em out. So they take no preparation except maybe a little packing here and there (hence the boxes) and all of a sudden one day the sheriff is there on the door step escorting The whole fam-dam-ily out to the curb with only the clothes on their backs. This happened a lot in the 80's & 90's. Or it could have been an older couple, passed on or put in elderly home & kids couldn't or wouldn't come 'clean out the fam home' so it was left to rot. If it was foreclosed on, everything belongs to the bank and they 'couldn't' come clean it out. It really makes the mind wonder why something like this would be allowed to happen. I can come up with 100 different scenarios, LOL.

If the people who post the video's would take a few minutes to do some research, all of these could be solved, but they basically come down to a few reasons: 1. Someone died and had no relatives 2. Someone died and had relatives that did not care or were in jail 3. Occupants were evicted by bank or property owner 4. Someone got sick, went into hospital and had no family to look after home 5. Someone broke the law and went to jail, as above with no family to look after home. If you know the address, you can check who owned it on the county assessor or equivalent. Check the name on the internet for obituaries. Otherwise, you can usually find an occupant's name in the building, and have a general idea of when it was abandoned. If not go to the library and look up the address in the city directory. (not the same as the phone book) Check the last name listed for obits, or newspaper search (your local paper likely has such a function on their web site). I find these things very depressing as that is what life seems to hold for many of us. If you don't have kids or you have alienated them, it is a certitude. So often, irregardless, spouses die, and your left in the home alone. You die or get sick and hospitalized without someone close, (especially in an older section of town) it's a given as well. You spend your whole life accumulating memories, and things, and when you die, they are totally meaningless to anyone else. One discovers their existence actually meant little to the rest of the world.

And urban explorers care more about the memories of a stranger than the people that actually knew the person.

jeff munson lol I thought I was the only one who watches these videos and hopes they flip over glass figurines to check for the makers mark.

I wish they would look at them also Fabulous Finds but they never do! I think that if they do they should put them back in the same spot where they found them. I so hate when some of these guys move things around and don't put them back in the same spot. But it is still fun seeing all the wonderful antiques ect; in some of these places.

HI

jeff munson belongs to the bank, those houses have been foreclosed on and what happens is the banks hire someone to go break in and change the door locks and take notes as to whats inside, if the value looks to be over 2000 bucks? the bank will send an accual bank employee out to collect the valuables but if not the bank will accually pay someone to haul the stuff to the dump, after everythings been hauled away the bank starts taking bids on making any repairs to get the home liveable again, whoever gives the bank the best bid wins the opportunity to do the repairs, same with hauling the stuff to the dump, you give a bid and lowest bid wins, and alot of folks come across descent stuff and instead of trashing it they keep it or yard sell it, so if you can get into this field of work there is good money to be made, the bank overpays on all the repair work and cleanup, for instance i know for a fact the bank pays $150.00 just to remove a dead bird or dead rat, but you've gotta carry special insurance to do the work, its called "property preservation services"

Thanks James Palmer. I have been an Antiques Appraiser for 45 years now. Have worked for banks appraising & doing Estate Sales but never the chance to buy. I'll have to look into that.

+Owlzindabarn Yeah it is sad. Almost like they disappeared

Owlzindabarn thatis sad. Materuals can be replacedbut all those pictures.thats my biggest fear.losing everything.including my lifetime of pictures

Very eerie.

+paula MacLeod You're so kind Paula. I'll try to keep them coming

+539 Productions Thanks 539

Yep looters looking for valuables. Whatever they can sell. So sad to see this lovely home be so badly abandoned. It is interesting though. I hope whoever was living there is in a better neighborhood.

I knew the family. Went to school with the oldest two kids. The parents were arrested for drug sales and the kids were taken into foster care. No other family around so everything was just left.

I didn't think so either. Hey, I am Subscribed to your Channel 539 Productions. You should check out Exploring with Rick and Beckah. They explore even older places anyway. I kinda think from your content you might like some of the locations they go too. Anyway, Always be looking for your uploads. Just thought you might like the heads up on the channel suggestion.

someone might have died and then put semen somewhere else.

+Anne Copeland Thanks Anne! It was a learning process (still is). I appreciate your complements more than words can say.

The pleasure was all mine, Urbex Dane, because it was well earned! Check out Patreon. You'll be glad you did! Cheers of gratitude!

L.O.L. because I was just going to post .... "please slow your panning". You even mentioned it at 4:00 but kept spinning. Overall great video quality, very crisp. Great site.

could be Flint 😂

I think it says Cleveland Ohio

Ohio

😂😂

Ohio. My whole paternal family is from there and almost the entire state is a huge shithole.

Beauty in Decay Explorations

I don't want to be a Debbie downer and I agree I can't believe it either... I've just come to the realization in the end this happens to everyone.

It’s only stuff non of it matters only the priceless family photos let’s hope nothing bad happened to them , I find it strange how a family can just vanish

They are awesome. And sought after for 'retro' bathroom renovations. Very comfortable with the long sloped back.

@@LakeNipissing Yes, they're very comfortable, but you have to be careful. If you get too comfortable in warm water you could fall asleep and inhale bathwater! (I speak from experience. lol) *P.S,* I've also heard them called claw-and-ball-foot tubs.

Thank You. I hope she can save some items before everything is destroyed

Hey Lisa

+Brianna Stainbrook People came in and destroyed their home. Hopefully they was able to save some of the belongings

+Angel For Animals Me too! I hope the family can save what they can and sale the home. Half of the homes on that street is abandoned. It's not safe over there anymore.

+Betty Newton Thanks Betty. I'm working on the quick movements.

+Ameh Linn Thanks Ameh. I try to be

The whole entire street is basically abandoned. A few houses remain occupied but that is it. Thank you for deciding to subscribe. I have some cool places yet to explore

+Urbex Dane Thank you!

+Deborah Halford That's it claw feet. I often wonder about homes such as this. All that stuff left behind is shocking to see. How did they accumulate so much?

and how does It get all strum around. crazy

After living in the same house for 30+ years, I can tell you it is very easy. My grown kids bring things over here like I am a storage facility when the place is already overfilled from my things. I go thru the stuff and can't get rid of them because of the great memories, etc. Yup, I will die with my huge pile of crap too.

We will have to come and explore your house then when you're gone.

lol

I think they would consider it stealing. I don't want to find out

It is owned by family, personal possessions. Privately owned not public free for all
