I once had a contract like this, but it was for office space. In the contract, it stated that if I didn't show up for more than a week (I had to let them know in advance), my landlord would own everything inside. When I questioned it, they told me it was 'boiler plate' and told me to find another place to rent. I found another place within two days that had a better location, free Internet access, and a fantastic contract.

It's a state law, but I would be shocked if there were any state where that term was legally enforceable. I live in Massachusetts, and I would LOVE it if, after a 9 day vacation, my landlord started selling my belongings. The lawsuit would, not only be lucrative, but fantastically entertaining.
