We had a guy steal a pole barn here. He drove by the property, saw the lumber company dropping off the pole barn package, knew that the owner didn't live there, hired a local guy to go over and move it to his property down the road, and erect it. Told the guy that the yard had put it in the wrong place. Years later, after a drug bust, they found the building? Btw, the guy was a retired cop.

A bit out of my range and I don't have quite enough tractor to move it in one piece. Got to wonder how they think they can get away with it and turn a profit? The parts not assembled could be redirected but on the completed house the labor to disassemble and re purpose all of it would eat up any profit.
Oh well the prisons are full of people that aren't anywhere near as smart as they think they are.

IIRC, They found the house a short distance away. But it gets stranger. Three people claim to be the owner. One sold it to a neighbor who moved it.
