Do I see an fun switch?
No. You see maybe $900 in rifles. Hard to believe the home inspector missed a couple rifle cases in the attic. Either way, dude is a spot light ranger for even letting anyone know.
My thoughts exactly.
Plot twist: he turns them into the local PD :sarcastic:
An imported .22lr HK MP5SD clone and a Bushmaster Superlight ORC (carbon fiber POS), no wonder they were left behind . . .
That was my thought as well. Cut ALL your losses.

So, they sell them both and get something good with the proceeds. That’ll get a pretty decent 1911 and some ammo, or maybe a Dillon 650 and some components. What’s the downside? It’s just a handful of Franklins waiting to be put to good use.
Bingo!
I could be so lucky.
It was the right thing to do. Hopefully, the police can locate the rightful owner.
Gotta love that typo in the link…
“My friend just bought a foreclosed house, he found these in the attack.”
Btw… a home inspector trying to lift those or anything else out of someone’s home, foreclosure or not, is still theft and most likely loss of job at minimum.
How about losing his job for not doing his job? It’s his job to check nooks and crannies to make sure the house you’re buying is up to standard. It is hard to believe these long rifle cases were hidden away somewhere that he would’ve missed during his inspection. It appears to me that he either half assed his job or didn’t do it at all.
Since when is a rifle in a case part of a home inspection?
A: It’s personal property.
B: It poses no inherent danger. Unlike say a meth lab.
C: A firearm in the home has zero to do with the “standard” of the home.
D: For all anyone knows, there actually may be a notation in his report that some firearms were present and if so probably a photo. He probably would have done that to protect him/herself in the event they disappear.
E: Not all homes are inspected.
This situation has zero to do with a home inspector.
Personal property of whom? It’s a foreclosure. No one lives there.
Home inspections are a condition of sale, at least around here. I find it hard to believe he notated them on a report. I know I’m not the only one that would doubt the veracity and accurateness of his report if nothing was brought up and I found those laying in my attic.
This situation is potatoes. Retard finds firearms and then it gets spun up online. This is a non story that never should have made the news.
It’s hard to tell who’s property it is. One thing for certain though it is not real estate. Depends on a lot of things, but let’s say the Bank or the local Government owns the home. They probably also own the contents… but… .someone might be able to contest that if they so desired. At any rate, the fact the home is vacant, again, makes zero difference.
Home inspections are a condition/contingency of —some— sales. They are not a requirement to execute a contract for sale/purchase of real estate.
Like I said, it would only be to cover his ass. If I went in a house that was vacant and saw guns lying around, I would be on the phone with whomever gave me permission to enter the home. Someone ( owner, government, or agent on their behalf ) is responsible for what happens in that home and who they allow in. If I went in and saw guns laying around, I want to make damn sure they don;t get tied to me as the last person to be around them when they turn up missing or worse, having been used in a shooting. However… it’s also important to note that most home inspectors are not alone in a property during an inspection. But if anything did look fishy… they would be making some sort of notes to protect themselves.
Yet, you just said you would find it hard to believe it would noted in a report. You can’t have it both ways. But seriously what you are saying is about the same as saying an auto mechanic should make detailed notes about the type of air freshener hanging off a rear view mirror or you won’t trust his report on your fuel injectors.
Nothing personal but you don’t understand what home inspectors do.
Now on that we agree.
