be carefull while lenders do noprosecute people for damaging the property prior to a foreclosure IT IS and I repeat IT IS A CRIMINAL ACT. and you can go to jail for doing it . there is an inventory of the house and whatever is missing can be reported as stolen and you will be the first suspect. Its not worth it let it go move on and begin again

To make it simple, you can take your personal property, which is whatever is NOT attached to the structure or land.
The items you listed are attached and they are part of the house.
On the outside, if you have an apple tree, you can take the apples, but not the tree.
You cannot take REAL property, which is land and anything affixed, incidental, or
appurtenant to it, and anything considered immovable under the
law. Land, buildings, and other immovable property permanently
attached thereto.
Don’t be cheap and don’t get yourself into a big trouble.

No you cant take any of the items you listed as they are part of the house and money was loaned on those items and the lender had photos of those items in the appraisal when you bought the house. You can take the washer and dryer and refer if they were not included when you bought the house. If they were there when you bought it, then you need to leave it. Trust me lenders get really Pissed off when you start gutting a house and they can go after you for a judgement to bring the home to market standards so they can sell it. I do foreclosure appraisals and lenders are getting fed-up with people doing this kind of thing. Also take your garabge with you.
