I believe you have the right to demand compensation through the title company. There is an amount that they get refunded when everything is paid. By taking possession of the property before closed, they owe you a rental amount, plus compensation. See what you can do to get that from the escrow.
If you find you can't stop the close or get recompensation through the escrow, then you will have to sue them for reimbursement.
Hope this helps. |

If you at this moment have credible proof of this fact, then I would sue the butt off him. |

I would find out which real estate agent gave him the key (it was supposed to be yours, his would not have it) and complain about the broker to your states department of real estate. They I would offer to settle your case out of court, the broker will be nailed to the wall and anxious to avoid time behind bars. |

I would include the price of the items in the cost of the house, or charge him for the items separately. If he doesn't pay, take him to small claims court. If he doesn't by the house, have him arrested for tresspassing and then take him to small claims court. |

How did they get in to do it?
Who gave them the key?
Sue them if you have closed, demand adjustment if you haven't closed |

The buyer broke the law. Sue him for damages. Unless it was all junk and you don't have any monetary damages. In that case, it's a waste of time. |

If you have proof and reciepts for you big items I would sue the pants off of him. It is not his to throw away and if the house hadn't closed yet, my question would be why he was in the house cleaning it out. Now if you lost the house due to foreclosure and hadn't pulled all of your furniture out of it, then you lost the stuff when you lost the house and there would be nothing that you could do about it. Good luck and hope that you can get your belongings back or at least get the $ to buy new stuff. |

I would ask myself why I let the buyer occupy the house before the close. |

Sue! |

better to sue than sew him. it would help if you knew exactly what it was (photos) and their value. if they were worth less than $1,000 you can go to small claims court. either way, only you can decide whether it's worth the hassle. if it fit in the dumpster it couldn't have been furniture or appliances, right? |

How did he have access before the close?
Doesn't sound right!
Sue him! |

No matter what the zip code is, if there was no closing yet, the house was still yours and they were trespassing. This is a criminal matter, talk to the same lawyer that was handling the sale of the house. |

sue them!! |

Stop the sale & charge the buyer either A) extra to replace the stuff they threw away, or B) call up the Portland/La Bonita Police/Oregon State Police to serve a warrant after pressing charges against them -- depends on the stuff they threw away & its value. |

Portland, Oregon?
the buyer has no rights to the house till after the close of escrow.
Sue him for trespassing, if you can, but they probably will say , well it was gonna be their house.
But you may get a genuine Judge and tell the buyer to pay up.
I mean that's the way it's suppose to work.
Get a Arbitrator. They are cheaper and pay a little more attention to negotiation.
You never said, how much the stuff was worth and how they got in?????? |

Why? Spite, negligence, accident? Whose fault? |

If you have proof they did, then you have the right to sue the pants off them. |
|

leah
 |
break into the house throw there stuff in the dumster and then blame it on someone else ok properly best to not go with my advice go to the police and tell them wat happen i guess but my idea is still good |

Sue the buyer's *** for damage to your property. If the deal wasn't closed you still owned that house and all the stuff in it belonged to you. That was a crime. |

Send a letter of demand asking for the value of your possessions, make sure you have a due date.
Once they don't pay, small claims court will get you the cash. |

The deciding factor is inevitably the value of the goods. Under $5000 you go to small claims court. $5000 to $20,000 and you can't get a lawyer, I would need a $5000 retainer and my final bill would be in the $20,000 area.
Over $20,000 and you can get a lawyer.
This is a difficult case to win. My advice is move on and forget about it. The first question I would ask if I was the defense is, why did you not retrieve your items from the dumpster. How can you say these items were of value if you never took them with you. See what I mean.
My advice, move on and next time clean your house out sooner and don't turn over the keys until the day of closing. |
