In September, a couple rented a partially furnished home on Bainbridge Island. They moved in and right away held a garage sale, selling off most of the home owner's belongings.

Graham, why don't you crawl back under your rock. The homeowners COULDN'T be there to watch over their stuff, so they paid Windermere to check out these creeps before renting the place to them. The brokers obviously didn't do their job, but I guess that's all the homeowner's fault. Can't feel sorry for them, huh? Merry Christmas, you loser. And pisces4, is a wedding dress not sentimental?

What, you folks didn't see the video posted that explained everything? You thought it was just a fancy picture of a house with a superimposed arrow over it?

First of all finish the story please. Second of all that's the chance you take renting a furnished home to strangers. I bet there was nothing of sentimental value in there and that is what insurance is for. At least they didn't burn it down or kill anyone.

When you rent your home maybe it would be a good idea to be in the local area & not way off some place so you can watch out for your stuff & not trust it to someone else to watch . Can't feel sorry for the home owner
