Doing a “trashout” on a home here in the Phoenix area gives you some interesting insights into what the people who used to live there treasured most.
The ironic thing is that many of the things people treasure - they end up leaving behind.
Case in point: Alcohol bottles.
Some people decorate their homes with (empty) alcohol bottles. They even build display shelves when they run out of display room on their TV. If your living room is decorated with alcohol bottles, I can only assume that you treasure them. Or treasure the memories of them. Or treasure the memories you had with them. Or treasure the memories of the people (or person) that you were with when the bottles made their transition from full to empty.
Yet, when you leave… you leave them behind?
When leaving a house due to foreclosure, people leave behind the darndest things. Things that they absolutely worshiped when they lived in the home.
Another case in point:
Does anyone know what these are?
I am not 100% positive, but it seems to me that at one point - I suspect that someone actually was very interested in these things… yet they left them behind?
I guess the bottom line is this - when leaving a property due to foreclosure, people often leave many things behind. And it is somewhat impossible to predict what someone deems important enough to take with them or unimportant enough to leave behind — until you see it for yourself.
