I always like to read something like this. That is usually a bit hard to find valuable information on the internet.

A gift that needs to behold and the fact that people appreciated less about what we have right now….Though we all know that these are gifts not a place to play…they just ruined everything they are not ours we just borrowed it, we should respect and take care of mother nature.

I understand being angry for losing your home, anyone would feel this way, but cutting down your trees doesn't solve anything, it only turns people against you. The ones buying the home could easily plant other trees or try to repair these ones, but it takes years for them to grow back, such a waste…!

Acts like this are a waste of human resources and natural resources. It took a long time for that tree to grow. It will take time to clean up the tree now. Someone clearly spent time sawing the tree… I wish they could have found something better to do with their time.

I really don't like when anyone makes such a mess and specially to the nature…we all know how much time it takes to grow a plant into a TREE..and this is what happens in the end..this is really a thing beyond getting tortured…It not only affects the nature, but the real estate business as well..the property prices are slashed down for everyone in the neighborhood…so sad..if they had used a good quality Property Management Software early on, they could have benefitted more from this land..:)

Do they really have to make such mess? Very unscrupulous deed. Are they out of their minds. I cant understand why do they have to destroy the trees. They should go to hell.

Jay,

I was in a home in 85254 (Scottsdale) in Dec 2008 where someone had pumped the pool into the house. It was a "squishy" experience to say the least. Not good. At least the home was all on one level.

Even worse, I was in a home in Chandler in Aug 2008 where they back washed the pool into the second floor and the water was still dripping through the ceiling (the hose was still snaked up the stairs).

In July 2007, I was in a home in Surprise where everything was gone. And I mean everything. Not a single electrical outlet/plate/cabinet/toiltet/light was left. They pulled the copper out of the walls on that one. The bank was going to have to tear open the dry wall and rewire, and put the kitchen back in, etc to sell it.

Then there was the one where the concrete was put into the toilet sewer line in Surprise….

In the end, defacing property is a crime. Whether you paid the mortgage or not. The police investigation really should be quite short, from Craigslist, to the offenders home. But that is my take on it.

I haven't seen anything like that in a while now. It looks like people have improved their behavior. The down side to this market is, one of my REO Colleagues has had a few suicides in properties he was taking back. That was when I realized, property destruction is one thing, loss of life, quite another level of tragedy.

There is a strong human element to this down turn that goes under the carpet at times.

Matt is right. This person is a dumb ass! I do landscaping as well and I think this kind of crap crosses the line. So you lost your house, find a new one don't just cut the trees all up.

Man, that is messed up! I own a landscaping company in Texas and I know how valuable trees are to a property. What kind of a dumb ass cuts the trees in half? I think if you cant afford to pay your mortgage, you should spend more time looking for a job and less time thinking of ways to destroy the property your about to loose. We really need some new laws to help stop this kind of destruction. It would be nice if the courty system took this person and made them remove the old trees and plant new ones. I know just how hard it is to dig out a tree of that size and I think they might learn a lesson if they had to do it.
