A TikToker known as @mattyice0296, a real estate investor, shared a startling discovery on the platform recently: he found human remains inside a hoarder house he had recently purchased at auction.
The home, filled with trash and neglected belongings, revealed its grim secret as he began the cleanup process. In a video posted on March 14th, he panned the camera to show a decomposed body amidst the clutter, stating, “This is freaking wild. Guess I gotta call the police now.”
The remains were later identified by the coroner as belonging to a friend of the former homeowner, possibly a romantic partner, though further details were not disclosed.
Neighbors had complained about a foul smell from the property for over a year, but their concerns had gone unaddressed until this discovery. The incident has since gone viral, shedding light on the unexpected challenges of buying and flipping auction properties.
