Property photo / evidence log
1. POSSESSION & PERSONAL PROPERTY DISTINCTION
Suspected abandonment of a tenancy, personal property left after a voluntary move-out, and property remaining after a court process are different legal situations. The presence of belongings alone should not be treated as automatic proof that the tenancy ended or as permission to remove, sell, discard, or keep property.
2. FACT / SOURCE ATTRIBUTION
Separate firsthand observations, photographs, records, statements by residents or witnesses, and conclusions. Record dates and sources accurately, avoid characterizing allegations as proven facts, and preserve original supporting material when the record may later be reviewed.
