The concept of squatters rights comes from medieval England, when only land that was occupied or being used was taxed. Wealthy land owners would allow big swaths of land to go fallow & overgrown to avoid paying taxes. In order to collect more taxes the King allowed squatters who moved onto this land & farmed it to claim ownership as long as they paid the taxes & were in continuous occupation for a period of time, which varied from 5-20 years. Squatters rights were written into American laws during the Westward Expansion. Unfortunately what’s happening today with criminals breaking into people’s houses & moving in without the owners knowledge has nothing to do with the original idea developed in England. The houses they’re stealing aren’t really abandoned & the owners are paying taxes on the property. When the cops show up the squatters claim they’re legal tenants (they often show a fake lease) & the property owner is a mean landlord trying to illegally evict them. The cops don’t know who to believe so they tell the property owner to take the matter to civil court.

Exactly, because some people really believe they have a legitimate lease, because a scammer "rented" the house and took money for it, and gave them a fake lease. If someone is too quick to give a lease, it's suspicious.

My heart really went out to Patti. Those women that illegally took over her home were such pigs! The audacity and entitlement was off the charts and of course we all saw the damage they left behind! My advice to anyone is to install cameras. They are inexpensive and link with your cellphone. Any type of motion will activate the camera and it records sound too. I had a home for sale and a woman found a door unlocked and went on in to look around. My cameras went off and I saw her from my residence. I called my real estate agent and asked if she was showing the house. Nope. I called the police and they were there in a flash. I arrived on the scene to a woman apologizing profusely and almost in tears. I called have pressed charges for breaking and entering but did not do so. I’m sorry this cost Patti over $40,000. I’m happy they are changing the laws against these squatters.

No one can do this to me because I don't have a home. I'm a senior citizen without affordable housing, but I would never move in to someone's home. Realities should hire people to stay in an empty house until it's sold.

The BIG problem with this law is the third condition: ***The individual is not a current or former tenant in a legal dispute. If the individual(s) even shows a phony lease, it takes going to court to prove it is phony. Law enforcement will take the side of the squatter with a phony lease in hand. Even waiting only ten (10) days to go to court, a lot of damage and thief can happen in those days. The squatter with phony lease can take and/destroy all appliances, destroy the place then just disappear. You really think they are going to appear in court and take a chance on jail time? The law should have required both owner AND person with "lease" in hand to be banned from the house/residence - property until the court date. Yes, it is an inconvenience for a home homer, but it is a lot cheaper than needing to replace appliances and repair damages to the residence/property. Which can be into the tens of thousands of dollars and take months to make the residence/property usable again.

Government views it as a waste of resources (yes, it is your resource, but they still hate it when you waste the home by keeping it vacant).
