The favorite line I got was "you might as well throw all your money away" when someone close to me heard we had purchased a property. 

Throw out the broken items and hope that my landlord would not notice what's missing C. 

I usually throw everything on the floor out, soak the place with quality enzymes designed for pet urine, and clean everything thoroughly. 

I would limit them to one side of the house for throwing things off (one doorway clear of hazards at all times, gates closed)  and put any safety requirements and debris removal in the contract. 

After reading several responses, I am amazed on how many people are willing to throw away $49 just because it seams affordable.

They are banking on the buyer throwing the seller a bone to cover legal expenses rather than wait months to get the EM back.If the EM was worded properly in the beginning then the buyer would be able to terminate and get EM back without seller consent.

I spent today, an amazing spring afternoon, strolling around the historic district of Fletcher Place with my wife - a veritable stones throw from your office, I know. 

We also get a lot of leads for mobile homes and we were told to throw those leads out as well.

Thought I would throw in the C.A.R.

Then I would take my 4 x 24 belt sander with an 80-grit belt in to that area and sand slowly until I got down to bare wood.I would then use my trusty pry bar to rip up any additional pieces that are too heavily damaged to salvage and throw them away.I would then measure and cut pieces to replace the missing pieces out of 3/4 in. oak boards with fine-cutting blades in my table and miter saw.
