Trog did not own the consignment shop (Bloomingdeals) in Goshen, NY.
I know, I thought maybe he was aware of the old womans stolen identity scam and he knew the woman who took possession of the house did not own it, so together they were involved in selling the real owners antique furniture from Bloomingdales.
It didn't make sense to me that if trog lived there, he would be unaware the person collecting rent was not the owner. And maybe once the real owner had passed, he got booted out when Bloomingdales flooded.
I didn't watch him until he was already freezing in the camper so I don't know the full timeline back then.
