Der... no, we were living there the past two years... it was obvious he was just trying to snoop, making sure someone actually lived there while it was on the market and that it wasn't a grow house cover or something. Needless to say, he did not come in, and he barely got to see inside... which is a good thing, because a pipe was on the coffee table.
Did you know if you put your house up for sale, a cop can search your house without a warrent (I believe they only need probably cause). Keep things like this in mind.
