Trustee's sale: What happens to personal property? My first deal.

[Jeff Macdonald]

I just made my first REI deal today! I bought a house at trustee's sale (courthouse steps). The owner passed away early 2016. I'm guessing there is still considerable personal property in the home. What does the law say about this situation? Do I now own the personal property or do I need to attempt to return it to family?

Thanks
