foreclosure in 1 month, when to cut electricity?
Hi guys,
We're losing our house to foreclosure in about 4 weeks. We have already vacated the property and moved to a rental home.
I've been paying the electric bill at the empty house (that's going into foreclosure) for almost 2 years while the place has been on the market for sale. The house is in a cold climate and we have been protecting the pipes from freezing.
Now that foreclosure is unavoidable I want to stop paying these $200 a month electric bills. Can I shut the power off now? Or can I have it shut off the day the house goes into foreclosure?
Thanks very much.
