A REAL ESTATE question...
When "Lessor-A" leaves a house and "Owner-B" moves in, who is the Rightful owner of all-the-stuff that is left by Lessor-A inside the house? / Is this Ownership-ruling different when either-party lives across-state-lines (USA)?
Update:No contracts / nor agreements nor-rights-of-ownerhip were signed before this real estate was originally movedf-into by Lessor-A.

normally that is written into the lease or rental agreement
Abandoned property does not transfer ownership of property. If a lessor moves out, the LL can put their property into storage in order to have complete access to their property. In most places, they must retain the property for 30 days before disposing of it.
The fact that its an owner moving in is irrelevant, they are just like a subsequent tenant moving in.

It depends upon state law, but if the lessee has stopped paying rent and utilities, but has left property there, it is deemed abandoned. If the lessor saves it for the lessee, storage fees could be charged.
in most states, when lessor moves out, anything left behind is landlord's to junk, dispose of, sell, or give away.
registered vehicles [including boats] may be an exception. check state law on this
