Q: Is there any way a neighbor's young adult kids can claim a right to break into our house and steal all our property?
We are in the middle f relocating across the country. We had been packing our beongings and property in our home in A to prepare to get a moving truck to relocate to AZ, but there was an unexpected delay in the moving of our belongings. We were away from our home in PA for approximately 2 months, but had a friend just check on it twice a week to briefly look that all was ok. Apparently our next door neighbor's young adult kids and friend decided they had a "right" to just take ALL of our personal property. The state police found some of our items in their possession, and now they claim we "abandoned" the property and that they have "proof it was foreclosed" neither of which is true. I still own the property. The Mortgage was transferred between banks but I am still the deed holder. The state police officer has advised my husband to bring proof the house was not in foreclosure to the hearing..WHY? Even if the bank were trying to start proceedings, it has not yet been foreclosed.
A:
Why not show them the proof if it helps their investigation?
