Can anyone advise what to do when you move into a home and it's not been left in vacant possession?
In our case we moved in last week and when we arrived we found the previous owner has left loads of stuff here, the main thing being a commercial size (over 400lbs) treadmill that's taking up our entire utility room .
They've also left an exercise bike, loads of weights, a huge rusty iron lawn roller, a lawn mower, 10 footballs, a strimmer, a broken plastic garden storage unit, tonnes of other bulky items and garden equipment.
I've got our solicitors involved and they've contacted the sellers solicitor. They came back today and said she's happy to pay for a skip for us to remove it all but I feel that it's unfair to expect us to try and move a treadmill that should be a 4 man lift.
Anyone have experience of this before? Should we just get on with it? Am slightly gutted we've moved into a property that's still full of their things
we left ours completely clear of rubbish and belongings and expected the same.
