Seller Left Mountains of Trash After Failed Post-Occupancy Agreement 

Here is the house after we remodeled it and how much it sold for. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RvyMKFZetok.htmlsi=O9f1ZfJUphPt_vxT

Disconnect or remove any of their security equipment. The previous tenant in my house was forcibly evicted. Landlord didn't remove her cameras and the system was still active when I moved in. She would trigger the alarm at random times of the night. I ripped out every camera to get sleep. You are a very brave man. That house is a horror show. It's hard to tell where to begin.

This was my grandparents house. The man you dealt with was my grandpa. My room was the fish tank room. That weird box thing in the garage is a speaker built into the wall. Speakers are built into the walls floors and ceiling all throughout the upstairs. And the thermostat is that little screen inside the door among other things.

Got itchy just watching you walk through. I'm sure the neighbors are thrilled that the mess will be gone.

You've got your hands full with this one, once it is empty you'll see the real work needed. I've never in my life left a home like this. Crazy to think how many are left like this or worse.. take pride no matter where you live, wether your rent or own.

It’s disgusting. I’d love to share what my tenants live like with you! It still shocks me people live this way. I’m still in process of getting them out. They were running an animal shelter out of the house, 22 animals seized by SPCA. Craziest thing I’ve ever dealt with😢

The Glass Blocks are valuable. My most recent move was horrible. I put a nonrefundable deposit on the company. On my final day in the house the van came, took a look, called it a hoard and left!!! Three times I told the mover that the buyer had said I could leave things behind. I packed everything carefully yet he left my things there. I'm now in Florida in my completely new life with a man I love and who loves me. Was it worth losing everything I owned? You bet!!! He had to leave alot behind too. Together we are building up a household along with our 2 dogs. Life is good. God is great and must've realized I deserved people more than belongings. Have a wonderful day, Mark!

This house has so many visible code violations. I hate to think what you'll find when you get inside the walls and under the floor layments. The DIY'er from Hell got ahold of this place. Good luck!!

Holy Rubbermaid Tote lids.

My mom was a hoarder. After she died, I was the chosen one to clean out the house. I had an industrial dumpster delivered outside one of the windows. 9 TONS OF TRASH, 9 tons! That didn’t include many trips to Goodwill. It was a nightmare! Good luck to you!

MARK, Not sure if I was watching your video or the HOARDERS channel. * Not one room in the house is finished - remodeling was started but not finished. Wires everywhere. * Hard to imagine the living style people choose, but living/hoarding like this is an illness. * Excited to see what you do to this house.

Absolutely appalling. I will never understand how anyone can live in such a mess. What a daunting task ahead for your crew. I would have passed on that deal. Good luck! ☺️

Woah! What a crazy backyard. It’ll definitely be a fun project to watch! Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

I bet the neighbors are glad these people are gone. I can’t imagine living like this. You’ve got quite a project to start. Looking forward to the progress updates !

$247,000 for THAT?! My house is gorgeous & I only paid $125,000.

I just watched your other video about them not leaving. Wow this is crazy messed up! Sorry for all the trouble these people put you through!

I always wonder how people can live like that? That house gives me the creeps.

Furnace-No drip leg on furnace gas line...gas shutoff installed after the flex line. I just spent around $8 a piece for Glass Block to do a basement windows job..Take em and store them in your warehouse.

My dad called people like this "sorry". No better description ever.

No words to describe this one Mark. Good luck with it. This one’s gonna cost some green! 👍👍

OMG !!!!!!!!! Kudos to you and all the great people out there that do this for a living !! I wouldn't know where to even start.............take a match to it. Joking . Good luck...keep us posted !!

Woooooow. Watching your vids like these always makes me want to go clean up my house. When all the junk is out, that house is going to look so much bigger.

Such a bizarre situation! Seeing so much left behind and in the manner it was left, makes you scratch your head and ask, what took so long!? Sometimes, you just can't explain stupid people though. Glad you're on your way and moving forward! Very entertaining none the less, albeit probably a little at your expense lol Keep it up Mark!

That is gonna be a challenge to completely do clean up and then fix up. I always enjoy the challenge! Much success to you, in this new endeavor.

😮well your video just popped up so I clicked to view it! First you need some kind of medal for even attempting to deal with this mess!! this needs to be submitted to A& E for their hoarders episode. Goodness! Subscribed! I can’t wait to see the end result for this. Also I want to thank you I was thinking about pursuing something like this, nope no way I’ll now live vicariously through your adventures 😅

Good luck! The potential exists, as usual, the work is needed!

Can’t wait to see the updates 😊

Im inspired to clean my house whenever i watch videos like this!! My house isnt even messy!!

This was my babysitter’s house when I went to Elementary School! This house is nothing like I remember it!

Omg, I can't believe how nasty dirty some people are. How can anyone live in a place like this? You're going to need a couple of semi trucks to haul all that trash away.

My wish came true! I briefly saw your supra in the last one. I guessed the year correct. I had an 85 turbo. Such a fast and fun car!

It's makes me feel great to see these videos of how bad it looks AFTER they move their stuff out because I think I'm a hoarder but I don't have half the amount of stuff they apparently had AND my house is a lot cleaner.

Definitely excited to see a breakdown of the numbers once this house sells. I have a feeling expenses will be higher than projected.

I don't see a single thing worth saving with the possible exception of the pendent lights and MAYBE the glass topped sinks in the bathrooms.

What a mess ..can’t wait to see it restored 😊

Margo you are really an honest person. I respect you

I just stumbled on you channel. That house will be awesome when fixed up. I love the fish tank in the wall. Good luck.

What slobs! At least you don't have beer drinkers coming in and leaving their beer bottles laying around like in the vacant house I just bought. I put boards over the front door, they pushed the door in! I secured the door better, put more no trespassing signs on the front porch, put a litheum battery light in the front bedroom, no ones tried to get in since. Someone stole all the wiring in the house a few years ago. I hope to have the house livable and move in, in a few months.

I bet the neighbors are so happy that the sellers are finally gone. No doubt they're saying: Good riddance!

I'm late to the party, but it doesn't look too bad to me as hoarder houses go. There was a bunch of stuff that looked poorly done/jerry-rigged. I saw a lot of scrap metal, wire, etc inside and out, so someone should be willing to haul that away for you for free just to resell to a scrapyard. You may even want to call your local scrapyard to see if they will do it or give you the name of someone they know who will do it. Some of that furniture didn't look too bad, even the stuff outside, but I know from just doing a clean out myself that sometimes you can't give decent stuff away. I saw a bunch of stuff that contractors or places like Habitat for Humanity Re-Store could use, but again you have to get them to come to you. Maybe drag all the salvageable stuff outside in piles, cover the piles with tarps and put an ad online about free stuff with a one week window for pickup. After that just get a couple of dumpsters and start filling them. The blow-mold snow man might bring a few bucks, but I'm thinking the scrap metal, wire and ripped out furnace would bring more. Also, the aquarium equipment if in good condition might bring a few bucks. I saw a lot of random cabinet and dresser drawers laying around. Crafters like to use old drawers for frames and shadow boxes, so you could gather them up and list them in a lot for crafters/artists. I noticed a nice looking baby high chair outside that I bet some women's shelter would take. I could see daylight around some of those outside doors so you might want to address that issue so critters don't get in. The sheds on the property might be sellable unless you want to keep them. Good luck with this project!

That's so horrible I almost have no words. All of that is trash. I wonder if it would be more economical to take down some of that back fence and bring a bulldozer and dumpsters. The backyard is much larger than I was expecting, but that means that much more trash. It will be interesting to see what the electrical, plumbing and HVAC people say. Is it just the camera or those bedroom doors very narrow in the rooms super small? The kitchen puny and horrible layout? The foyer, or lack thereof.... There is a lot of work to be done but I'm sure you can make it look a lot better.

WOW, I don’t know how anyone could live like that. I really like the exterior of the house itself. Hopefully the renovation of the inside will be awesome too.

What a crazy mish mash of wires and general weirdness! Brave man to take this on! You and your team sure do have your work cut out for you. It will be an interesting journey. Good luck!

you got lucky this time with only a few tires but you sure did get alot of trash, this house is going to be very interesting to follow, i hope you can get this house finish and flipped fast.

Dang, this is bad. Some people have no pride. I’d be mortified to live this way 😨 There’s no excuse. Hope you do a before and after. Good luck to you!

Run a contest for guessing how many dumpsters it takes to clear this out. Ugh!

The Big Black HP Vinyl printer is worth about 200-1000$. Based on the current condition it is about 300ish dollars. I use printers similar to this one when making banners, posters, and vinyl cut-outs for clothing. However, that sticker with the G on it looks like it might be rented by the previous owner. Our printers are contracted through AmCom/Xerox and they have a similar sticker.

Mark just call for the dumpster! That is one crazy mess of a house! I will be interested in seeing what you do with this! Good luck!🇨🇦

You might check around and see if there are any metal recyclers (scrappers) and see if they would take the metal and wires. They might pick up that stuff free and they can sell to a reycle place

I could never do this for a living, I have severe anxiety regarding bugs.. cockroaches, bed bugs etc... Just watching videos like this makes my skin crawl

I hope that you can get this house cleaned out for around $10k. Where I live it is $700 just to rent a construction dumpster. There is a lot of junk at this house. I can’t wait to see what this house looks like when you are finished with it.

Paint and new flooring will work wonders.

I think, wow is the only word that describes this place. I would be worried about what they did and it’s covered up. Some of that furniture that was outside, looked like it was nice before it was put out.

WOW 😯 this one is a crazy one. I thought some of our tenants were bad 🥺 The snowman was the only thing I saw worth keeping. The rest of it got to go! Clearing it all out just to get an idea of what you can do with the house is going to be a Challenge .

Well at least they had plastic runners protecting the carpet. LoL

Lights coming on randomly, security cameras might be still active, along with the general creepy feeling this house is giving off? Ugh! God bless you! This house is absolutely disgusting! 🙏🏻❤️

What a dump! 😱 @23.35 looks to be a central vacuum system and I believe the pvc with the black cap (sticking out of the wall above it) is a cleanout port in case it gets clogged it can be snaked out. It has potential, good luck!

Holy crap that place is rough! Such a weird layout too. Hope everything goes okay with the remodel...

Mark, on thermostats, look particularly within ten feet left or right of the intake air- return air- point for the furnace/air handler. It will also usually be about head height for women and shoulder height for men. The furnace in the basement didn't appear to have the low voltage wiring bunch still attached, so it hasn't worked since that time- you can't even turn the fan on without accessing the low voltage circuit (12 volts) so I am in a quandary about how they lived there- I'd be asking for as much info on utilities as local authorities will give you, as I am suspicious of other utility related foolishness. That is going to be a long slog to clean and bring up to snuff; get a 9 or 12 yard dumper in the back yard asap and get the house emptied first, and any exteriors that will need access or clearance. You can get some local day help to finish the yard while your contractors "do the house". I'd suck it up and get someone from the local inspections office ( one that is retired and not under obligation to report) to look over the house- several violations of code on plumbing, electrical and HVAC were seen- the whatever connects to drain the aquarium are very disturbing. As well rip open that bazaar box you found- it wasn't constructed by any good carpenter and could be hiding answers to some of "what was going on here". Do not slack on calling the gas company- with the meter pulled, the only source for that gas is their side. You can already add the cost to recertify the gas system before you will be allowed to hook back up to it. Also a $20 k slush fund to your projection- you definitely have a $10 k trach problem and some of it may qualify as hazardous- he was running a bootleg electronics and appliance repair, likely cash only. Maybe not a grow house but not much better. I'm thinking your seller didn't actually live here- the idea of someone with a huge room full of good tools living like a crab in a cave full of crap just doesn't ring true for me. He may have been "hosting" some "friends" as watchmen and living somewhere else- notice how many doors down there had hasps for padlocks. If you go digging, I think this story may be in league with that bizarre church/cult home/residence thing you saw three years ago! FR

Lucky you-at least for one reason-RU-vid is pushing your content. It’s not my usual thing yet it’s recommended.. I’ll sub to see what happens. It’s really hard for me to imagine you even breaking even on this disaster, but I’m no expert. At least you’ll be a hero to the neighbors, who have probably been living a nightmare . Good luck!

Looks kinda rough but I can see a lot of potential in that house, it should make a nice place when it's done

Yikes , its quite a dump at the moment but i can see the potential once rehabbed . Your crew has alot of work ahead of them. Looks like something tweekers would do to a place !

Oh, my! Wow what pigs! How do people live like that! Wait until Niki see this! This will be an exciting watch you bring this house back to life! Can’t wait to see follow this one. I have been following you for years!

What kind of "can't live without items" could possibly be in this disgusting mess? WOW!

That’s gonna be a fun trash out!!

Ugh! Yeah...I wonder about the decisions on what to keep or leave too.

I'd be worried about the work/renovations those people did to the house. ugh Looks like the kind of work the homeowners before us did. 🙃 Those neighbors should be quite happy you are taking this one on. wow...

I would love to have the money they spent on JUNK, great video thanks!!

What a mess ,gas leaking dodgy electrical wiring and may have destroyed the integrity of the house by cutting holes where holes should not be. Looking forward to see this turn round,thank you for saving a lovely house.

Unbelievable. Yikes. Good luck.

Can't wait to see this one after it is all trashed out (inside and out) and all of the odd/useless crap is demo'd on the inside... I did notice that there isn't a exhaust hood over the kitchen stove. Like many other things with that house, not sure who thought that any of it was a good idea.

The panel hanging out of the wall is a central control panel. That’s where your lights and thermostat control are.

What a mess! I feel sorry for whoever has to clean it up!

I live in British Columbia Canada. Near me is a cattle feed lot ,and all the fencing is stacked tires . they must have about 500 head of cattle all the time .

Tear it all out back to the studs . Then tear out half of the interior walls . When you get to that point it’ll be time to put it back together in a much more organized way . Good luck .

Loving the supra

Have a reseller come in and pick out stuff they will resell, and they can also tell you where to donate in your area, they are very knowledgeable about stuff like that, and that snowman is highly sought after because it's a vintage snowman. Then I would advertise scrap metal for scrappers and have them come clean out all the remainder stuff after the reseller goes through and then you get your property pretty well cleaned up for free

The glass blocks are loved by crafter's, and you can probably get $2.50-$5 for each block. They also make an amazing divider wall,(pony wall) when stained or painted with lights inside= a really cool art piece 😜

I wish I lived closer that vintage (possibly antique) wood desk/hutch against that fence is a pretty penny… you should check the bottom for the maker

Wow, they Left Alot of cool items.and just curious, what do or did you do with the bicycle frames that were left? I rebuild mountain bikes, occasionally, and sell some. Just curious,

Im late, but some of those bmx/freestyle bike frames are money!

You did the seller a favor, the only way their life could get better was to get out of that disgusting mess and move on.

Actually Mark that could really be a cute house with some clean up and fixing up. That upstairs bathroom is cool looking.

I just started watching your videos 2 days ago, it popped up, looked interesting. So, can you please lmk if you're in the US and if so, what state please?

Santa blow mold in the backyard could be quite collectable!

I had an 87 Supra. Loved that car!

That a nice looking house outside

The kind of folks who win auctions of storage unit and clean them out are the kind of folks you should hire to do the cleanup of this house. Probably would do it for free in exchange for keeping anything worth $$$, and they could have a free pile on the lawn for a day so useable things get carried away. That will make a lot less to go into dumpsters and into the landfill. (You provide the roll off dumpsters)

Please, please make an after video with all numbers. How much will cost inspection and redoing HVAC, plumbing, electricity?

I think I saw a pair of speakers in the tool room. My aunt and my friends have the same floor plan; this house is beyond trashed. It’s a complete gut with like 12 dumpsters just for the trash. I wouldn’t trust anything in it as far as gas, electrical, or plumbing. Who knows if they cut anything structural.

Extreme DIY. I wonder if this house was on HGTV before? I wonder if the thermostat is hidden just like the exterior outlet.

There is probably enough scrap metal in that mess to make a dent in the amount of stuff that needs to be disposed of. When I sold my properties I started about two years before getting rid of stuff, either scrapping, selling donating and throwing away. My ultimate goal was leaving the country so pretty much everything had to go.

If you find any PCs laptops Chromebooks gaming systems or tablets please let me know! Thank you 🤓

You had me at the Supra. Most underrated GT car ever. 7Mgte&1J are the O.G. LS engines, overbuilt and cheap to tune.

At 8:17, that bedroom door looks like it had a deadbolt lock on it at some point. That's a little disturbing. I'm sure the neighbors are glad this guy left!

I'm invested in a few self storage syndications in Oklahoma. I wonder if they are my tenant now 🤔😂

17:43 Little green & gray pressure tank is O2, careful, not explosive but very strong oxidizer, will cause fire to burn very strongly.

We had one like this recently but it was also infested with roaches and spiders. We ended up having to order 3 of the 30 yard dumpsters plus a trailer full. That did not include the trash out for the Demo, just to empty the trash they left behind. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I personally would love to get my hands on the glass blocks. I am located in Colorado and would be willing to drive to get them.

Man I dont know what comps are in that neighborhood. But I would have passed. 50k for remodel seems cheap on this one. I do this for a living in Missouri. And i would have given 155-175 depending on roof and furnace. But clean up alone scares me on that one. Good luck I’ll keep watching !!
