The apartment was not cleaned, she left a bunch of her stuff as well (furniture, mattress). 

But as my property manager pointed out: "Would you want to move furniture when it's 22 degrees out and snowing?"  

if the owner is paying the utilities , go count the meters and verfy that the buildings are legal 9 families, there should also a public landing meter for each building for the hallways and out door lighting . i dont know what state your in but also make sure the tenants aren't on some sort of programs where the landlord is required pay the utilities to have the tenants .

I had to redo the kitchen, swimming pool, outdoor patio, bathrooms, and much much more.

Is it just saying we are going to toss belongings should we call sheriff to record furniture or just throw it away?

Private owners are more generous with giving back security deposits, are less likely to raise rent, and free furniture is free furniture!

The pictures I saw were taken with an older phone or bad camera, and have someone else's old furniture in there.

The managing mortgage banker on our team was a developer in Seattle in the 80's - and he often reflects on when rates were between 8-12%... back in the day.That said - to Wenatchee's credit - it's so affordable relative to Seattle, Tacoma, Bellevue, etc - and has great outdoor attractions that it is generating demand just due to its relative affordability.

If it is large enough to have furniture you should be very specific about what you will allow.

The thought is that the potential buyer can walk through the property with the listing pulled up on their phone and have an example photo of how furniture could be laid out rather than having to actually see it in the property.
