Question:

i am looking at buying a forclosed house and I was told that vandals cut and stole the electrical branch wire?

i under the house. Does that mean I will need to have the house rewired

Answer:

Maybe not rewired just replace the stolen wiring but you will have to have the house inspected by an electrical inspecter before the utility company will turn it back on.
Most likely.
Yes, any damage or missing things are on you. Foreclose house typically are as is.
It depends where the wires were cut,, if the wires are short they may need a j box do not use any electrical panels as juction boxes
Maybe not rewired but you would have to have a lot of Electrical work done, it may be cheaper to have it rewired then fixed having it fixed would included a lot of wire tracing and a lot of junction boxes set under the house, your best bet would be have a Electrician give an estimate of repair you would have a good idea which would be cheaper then. Hope this Helps
