		<description>Will be interesting to see how long it takes the bank to get this house cleaned up and back on the market. It&#039;s still sitting there.</description>

		<description>Interesting that the guy the FBI busted a few weeks ago for home stripping was a real estate agent.  He&#039;d been hired to sell the very homes he himself had stripped.  This guy clearly was unable to see how he was eating his own lunch.</description>

		<description>I was working with a client a year or so ago who was from Arizona.  It was about the same time foreclosures started showing up in our area.  As we went through some of them, she was amazed that everything in the home was in tact.  She said that in Phoenix where she was from, that lots of times people who lose their home take everything from counter tops to light fixtures.  Needless to say, I thought the idea was crazy.

Only recently have I seen the same type of activity that you describe here in Boise, ID.  Every light fixture gone, appliances of course, even doors.

Its a sad state of affairs when people who have in some cases willfully given up their home (not in all cases) and turn around and steal property that is obviously not theirs and most likely never would have been.

Being a victim of circumstances is far different than stooping to the level of being an outright thief!
