We discovered our old house is for sale AGAIN today. Went to the open house, and despite everything in the room being changed other than the wood beams and baseboard, the fan is still there. I can't believe it was there, after three owners in ten years and remodel jobs with each one. Nonetheless, I'm watching the trash from now on as much as possible. The wall control was exactly the same as the one I just got with my Moss, as I remembered it to be (see right next to the window).   The realtor was very nice about letting us take pics so I could show my mom, so if anyone else want to see more of the house I can make a thread in general. There were two more fans now as well, a Monte Carlo in the master bedroom and a Hunter in the second bedroom. Photobucket will NOT accept the master bedroom pic though... |

I would ask the current owners. How far is this house away from you? Keep watching the dumpster!

I'm glad it's still there! Hope you can obtain this fan somehow...

It's only like 5 minutes away in good traffic, now that I drive it's easy to watch the place. I hope to obtain it somehow, but I no longer have a connection with the current owners so I can't just show up on the door step and ask about it. The first owners after us we were on good terms with, wish we would've asked them about it before they moved...

Talk to the new owners. Explain you used to live there, and the fan has sentimental value, and you'll replace it with a new one. I bet they'll bite.

Like get right in there while they're doing stuff around as they're moving in. I'm keeping an eye on it for sure, now that I know it's for sure there I'm not letting it slip through my fingers that easily. |

Very interesting.. I have not ever had that opportunity to go into a house I once lived in years later.. I left a few Emerson blender fans and some others in a garage of the house we moved out of in 2000.. I would love to go in there and see if anything is still in there, but the owner that bought the house from the previous landlord was someone that lives in that neighborhood behind us when living there.. He's a real jerk..

He's a real jerk.. It's very interesting and very weird to see what things have changed indeed. We missed the open house last time it was for sale (it sold at the first open house) and I have been waiting ever since for it to go on the market again so I could get a look inside. The kitchen is beautiful, way nicer than it ever was when we were there. |
