If the closing was completed and the house is legally yours, technically you can do what ever you want. But morally, I would suggest calling them (if you have the number, if not call your lawyer to call them) and ask them when they can get their things.
However, if that is not possible move their things to the basement or garage and hold it for a few weeks or a month. That should give them enough time to get all their belongings. |

This happend to,my husband and myself moved our stuff in and they were still in our house. Once you close on a house it's yours!!!! I don't want to give you ill legal advice they are diffrent from state to state!!!!! Call you lawyer they should be able to tell you if the previous owners abandoned their goods. Congrats on the new home!!! |

You could have your realtor contact theirs, and let them know that you will either charge storage until they remove it, or you will charge for disposal of the items. That usually gets the seller to act. |

Why did your attorney allow you to close on the house? My guess is that you own the stuff if you so choose. I'd be pretty ticked off if I were you |

Actually, once you take possession, everything in the house now belongs to you. |

If you signed all the paperwork and the closing date has passed then everything in the residence is yours :) |

If you have closed the deal, then you are the new owner of all that stuff. I personally would send them a letter telling them they have a couple days to move it. |

Depends...have you signed the papers yet? Have you closed on the sale? I would read the contract first then ask your lawyer or the real estate agent. I would think that if you have the keys you can get rid of it.
Call them and set something up. |

I just purchased a house and they had left a lot of things here, so I asked my lawyer and he said that since I had recieved the keys and it was past the negotiated day of possesion I should notify the owners and if they do nothing then it is up to me to do what I want with the stuff (They were the ones living in the place, it was not rented to someone, if the property was rented then it is the previous owners responsibility to notify the tenants that the place is sold, or you could sue the person who sold you the house for failing to keep to their side of the contract).
I would check with your lawyer just to be sure and to be on the safe side
If you do notify the previous owner, that you want them to deal with the stuff, make sure to send them a registered letter so that you recieve confirmation that the letter was delivered and that they failed to take action. (Registered or courier so that they have to sign before they recieve the letter). |

"Stuff" is of personal nature not realty. There should have been two clauses in the offer to purchase, one for the doctrine of merger allowing for the offer to purchase to survive closing and another specifying the personal property to be conveyed with the realty and the final date of transfer of any and all personal property left. Once the closing occurs and the title is recorded in your name the realty becomes your property and failing to mention the ownership of personal property, left on the real estate after closing, in the agreements could be deemed a lack of "reasonable care" on behalf of the agent and or attorney handling the contracts. In the abscense of language addressing what to do with the personal property I would use the State's landlord tenant law language that addresses what to do with personal property left on the premises after eviction.

Did your contract say that the property must be delievered in "broom clean condition and free and clear of all belongings"?
If it did, why did you close if the place wasn't totally empty?
Did your contract give the owner a set time to vacate after closing if he wasn't required to deliver the property vacant?
Unless you bought the property fully furnished blah blah, the stuff isn't yours.
You will have to follow your states abandoned property notification procedure. If you don't, you can (and probably will) get sued.
All the people telling you "it's yours" have not seen your contract, nor will they be paying your legal fees if you get sued. |

First, you should not have closed on the property without them having removed the stuff first. Secondly, what does your attorney have to say? Oh, don't tell me you bought a house without an attorney??? After all, it is such a small purchase, why have one? |

If you closed, the stuff is yours. |

Talk to a lawyer but my advice would be, if the deal is
closed and you have title to the property, give them a
notice by certified mail that they have a week to take their
stuff. If it isn't picked up by then, you will put it into a storage
rental location and they will have to pay the charges to get
their property.
That way, you get their stuff out of your place and they have
the burden of getting it or losing it. |

The stuff in the house is technically yours, but if you take it or destroy it, they will have a great case in court to make you re-imburse them. Talk to your realtor for advice. |

Is it usual and customary for the seller to have vacated the property and removed all personal items by the closing date? |
