Comments on: A family in our neighborhood recently moved overseas and their house is listed with a real estate/rental agent. The family left house keys with several friends who have since entered the empty house for various reasons, ranging from picking up appliances to letting in a carpet cleaner. Now one of these “friends” wants to pass a key to me, saying the owners wanted me to have it. I refused it on the grounds that I have no business with a key to an empty house that isn’t mine. Isn’t the Realtor the only one with documented authority to enter the property? With all these keys in different hands, I smell big potential for trouble here.
