47. My best guess -- they took exactly what they wanted, and are long gone...
Probably tough to fence things like TVs, dvd players, etc. now, and not worth the burglar's time.

All true burglars want no contact with any residents -- they want in, and **out**, fast.

Years ago, my dad was staying alone in a condo in Palm Desert -- while he was sleeping, some burglars forced the sliding-glass door, took some appliances and small stuff, and totally ignored $1200 in cash (in an envelope, given to my dad by a neighbor for mortgage payments). They took some potato chips, also, but left the bag (?).

They never woke my dad. When he got up in the morning, he noticed a few things out of place, and missing. It was a ring operating inside the condo community. Never caught them.

I think that the guys who broke into your complex didn't even have time to "take inventory" -- they just grabbed what they could, and scrammed.

Hang in there -- :hug:
