Good for you for questioning them. Most people would not. The balls these people have to pull stoves and dishwashers out is unreal. Do they take the time to shut off the water - or does the homeowner get flooded in the process. I'm also on the northeast and having ADT installed next weekend - but given the audacity I wouldn't be surprised if that makes no difference at all. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, cjlowell cjd19@... wrote: I moved to the northwest section of AP 3 months ago, and I love living here.

My house which is techinically a condo is condo'd with the mansion house on the same property. 5 units in the mansion and I am #6. Anyway, a few years back, someone broke into the basement of the mansion and stole the washer and dryer (common to all units). No one saw them. It is really kind of crazy to think of people walking off with a new washer and dryer out of a house or other large appliances! It was during the day too.
