Woman 'disgusted' after buying auction house full of previous owner's things
A young couple were left 'disgusted' after buying a house at auction without viewing it - as it was full of the previous owners 'gross' belongings.
Izzi and Jordan bought a four-bed, two-bath house from a foreclosure website in January and they were given a few pictures of the property before it went under the hammer.
The couple, from the US, thought the home would be their dream house but they came crashing down to earth when they finally got the keys, as the Daily Star reports.
When they walked into the house they were greeted with piles of rubbish - as the previous owner was a hoarder who had filled the house with his countless possessions.

Documenting their experience on TikTok, Izzi wrote: "All we saw was outside, they said it's 1,668sq ft and we knew it has a screened-in porch, a driveway, garage, back yard, front yard.
"We saw this picture and said 'great' and we got it."
Sharing the video they took inside the house, all the rooms are filled with rubbish including food packaging, parcel boxes, empty bottles and plastic bags.
There is no clear path to walk, with most of the floor covered.
Izzi said: "This is the kitchen and there's a sink over there, the stove is straight ahead but you can't see it because there's so much trash.
"There's a little dining table, another table on the other side and food everywhere, trash everwhere.
"Probably can't tell you when was the last time the trash has been taken out. Just gross."
She was told that the owner lived with her mum and her three children, as well as four dogs and a cat.
Izzi continues her way to the bedrooms and bathrooms, saying: "Trash everywhere. Trash on the front porch too.
"The bathroom, it's so disgusting, I don't even have anything to say about that.

"The sink in the bathroom, cleaner, that never got used, apparently. And there is a hole in the ceiling above the shower that you can't see, that goes straight through to the sky."
The couple tidied the porch and the basement and left the items inside untouched as the owner has 30 days to come pick up their belongings.
Viewers were shocked and wondered how much Izzi and Jordan paid for the auction house.
"I can smell it through the screen, no thank you," one said and a second said: "Please wear hazmat suits and masks, and gloves."
Izzi said they knew the risk of not being able to view inside the house and they were still happy to pay $130,000 (£105,000) for it.
