ZILLOW, let it happen. Zillow DID NOT DO A VERY GOOD BACK GROUND CHECK! might be grounds for a LAW SUIT.

This is awful! There was a story about a guy who got a legal lease for his deceased mother’s house, waited for the squatters to leave, moved their stuff out, and became the squatter himself.

Seen it

There needs to be laws that cover the owners of homes from squatters. Also, harder laws and consequences for squatters.

She is a different type of squatter. She actually fills out an application even though it's filled with lies.

I don't have sympathy with rich whining folks. Karma is coming around. They are wondering why this is happening to them. Well it's for stepping on the little folk while they were climbing that social ladder.

I just wanna say that original interview where she confronts the squatter is LEGENDARY.

Bad checks & a criminal record for this in Colorado - WTF Texas????

So they did charge this woman with a type of fraud for this and got her out of this home. The crime has a sentence of up to 10 years in prison. I would give her the max if I was the judge. She wants a free place to live. A jail cell will give her that.

She should have gone to jail for check fraud

Why aren't they getting arrested for writing worthless checks?

I use a property management company. They don’t get in until the check clears.

Squatters do no have the right to park thier cars on your property you car call a repo, or any wrecker company and they will quickly come get thier car at no cost to you. The Squatters will have to find the repo company prove its thier car, pay fines for parking on private property and pay for tow. And daily cost

How can they get away with writing so many bad checks

Getting into someone else's house is breaking and entering at the very least...but to then say that if they break in they can take ownership of it? I will never understand this.

Technically this woman didn't break and enter into the home, that's why it's a problem...she got into there initially legally and then hasn't left, which is a civil matter. Its bad, and the laws need to be changed.

most go to jail for a hot check.

If they want to go to prison. Squatters rights exist. You can’t legally take matters into your own hands.

How come people aren't double checking references, running background checks, and waiting for the check to clear BEFORE letting them move in.

Why am I being notified of this?

I remember being a little girl in the 80s with a single mom and a dad that refused to hep. We got evicted and came home to find all our stuff ok the streets. What happened to those days? Why is this Ok now? I know it sounds harsh, but if you cant pay you can’t stay.

*This reminds me of the movie PACIFIC HEIGHTS. The evil of Michael Keaton's character in that film! Arrrggghhh!* *So sorry for the lady homeowner. Wishing her the best outcome and immediate recovery.*

Another video showed the real owner decided to squat in the same house and when the squatters left the house he refused to let them back in, using the squatters so called rights against them.

I'm surprised the squatter let him squat with them.

You know a Property Management service is well worth the fee they charge. I discovered this when a renter needed to be evicted. That was the ONE time in 30 years that we had a tenant not pay. Like I said, a GOOD Property Management person knows the necessary steps to take if a tenant refuses to pay.

I remember when she got arrested the first time.

Hire someone to be a squatter and once inside the house with lease papers have the hired person throw out the squatters property.

There are individuals on the Dark web who will immediately and competently eject this woman from the premises!

They will eventually come face to face wity the wrong one and they will regret it forever

People like these are the reason that others are not able to rent a home. Plus the fact that people can just take over a property is even worse.

Seems like a really simple solution in Texas. Lots of open areas....cold take decades.

4:44 That sounds like frud to me, which is definitely illegal.

I rented once, will never do that again.

There are tons of bikers looking for part time work in the metroplex. This is not a difficult problem to solve.

This is going viral nationally so hopefully Texas does the right thing!

The best thing to do is start locally. Get your city council to enact anti squatter laws then move on to your county government. Call your state elected officials and demand they take action. Melt down the phone lines until your state house presents a bill for passage and don't let up.

Time to up the law 2nd conviction 3 years in prison and 2x restitution.

I wonder if their truck is paid for or is it up for repossession.

The story should actually be how rare is it that the cops do their job with somebody stealing a house

They should take it by force. Thats there house that they paying with there own money because these squatters aren't paying. Cop's can't do anything because civil matters. It's take a 3 weeks or more. By the time the squatters get evicted. The house is all the damage and the owners got pay all the damage what squatters did. In the future for those who planing to get the house. It you feel like squatters may target your house. Have camera all set up. When you planing to go on vacation or going to work and if you have someone you can trust to watch your house while your on vacation.

The cojones on this one…

Don't mess with Texas, huh? It's don't mess with Colorado.

If it was my house…🤬🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Exactly 💯%

The Banks holding the MTGs should not be able to Foreclose!

I hope the owners didn’t lose their home!

The law is too protective of tenants who do not pay rent. They should be removable within 2 weeks of not having paid and also any of their goods seized including phones and cars to pay the back rent due before they leave too. In most countries cutting off water is illegal as tenants not paying rent have so very many rights.

So if I go to a bank to take out a loan and I present false information to qualify me, this is illegal, but the cops have to think about it being against the law if someone does it to rent a home? I can think of a lot of situations where the law would barge right in and take over the facility and throw the squatter out.

This is unreal?😯😯😯

Go to your county judge, and he or she will be removed

The US needs to pass a law like Florida. Did they could be squatting prison for a long time this is ridiculous what a bunch of trash .

Why don’t they just instill KYC measures similar to banking institutions for these types of leasing and renting. This would prevent this from happening.

Zillow is a common element in these stories

How do squatters get away with this?

Who still pays with checks??

3:41 No, it's a crimanal issue.

In Texas, just put a three day notice on the door.

Fake checks and the cops didn’t arrest her and Zillow 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂gen x buy more then you can afford.

6k to move into a rental.

Working on their theory that it is a civil matter then why not write someone you know really well a lease move them in get her out.

They need to make a national serial squatter list for lamdlords to check. Also. This has to be a stressful way to live. Always on the verge of being kicked out. Idk. Just pay your bills people.

I love the idea people are taking back what has been stolen from hard working americans. And i dont carr that she has to move in with family. At least she had somewhere to go.

there is a big hole in the legislation!

You litteraply need to hire someone to squatt make papers hire a professional or a friend mibe them out while they are gone because the current newest squatter would have legal rights in the moment. Which is pretty screwed up.

All of this is "he said she said" until it's sorted out in court.
