Why don't they just call her bluff and tell her to go ahead with a down payment if she really wants to buy the house? If the granddaughter is in a care facility and this lady already lives there (legal or not), why not have her start paying rent?

[@BetterTextLex]

It’s really not a complicated legal issue. If there is deed for the property with one fee simple owner, who died without a will, then the property passes to his heirs, which is his disabled granddaughter. The verbal lease agreement is void because the granddaughter did not have capacity to enter into a binding contract. Even if granddaughter had capacity, a contract effecting an interest in property for longer than a year must be in writing or it is void. The squatter cannot claim her voluntary repairs or 1 year occupancy give her a right to the property. The squatter is not entitled to reimbursement for the cost of repairs unless she has proof of $200,000 in expenses and permission from the owner or that the repairs were a necessity to live in the home .

[@lisadelpeche3371]

One prisoner was pretty pissed at the system because they knew he was up to something but couldn't prove it, so made up something else. He freely admitted to growing significant quantities of pot -- this was well before the trend of legalizing it, and it was enough under our state's laws to put him away for decades. They (the police) couldn't get any evidence for this, but they used a traffic stop as a pretext to search his car. They found two brand-new "chemistry sets" (i.e. educational kits for kids) and charged him with possession of paraphernalia. He got a lot less time for the paraphernalia charges than he would have received if they caught him with his little grow operation, but someone was happy to get a conviction.

That house doesn't look like it's being improved... that lady is definitely a squatter!

[@5quareson]

SQUATTER !!! Just like the standard druggy squatter who takes no responsibility for their actions and expects to publicly take over the house and once legally transferred I guarantee the house will be sold to the first offer of CASH

[@kaykay3458]

She wants the house. The nerve of this criminal, smh.

[@jamiesmiles8312]

There is no way she has spent $200K in one year. Let's just start with where she got that money.

[@Coloradodogmama]

Probably bought stuff with stolen credit cards or took out loans in other people's names.

[@lzeng78]

Where is the justice? Where is the govt when the vulnerable needs protection from thieves?

[@grimreaper4801]

court system isn't about justice it about the law. Law isn't justice. But justice can come from law.

[@vicc7409]

She’s a thief.

[@janegerard5604]

This woman is a liar, no way has she put $200K into that house.

[@ElDell]

Who is paying the property taxes??

[@cynymin6420]

The bigger story here is that small house that is partially falling apart is worth $500k? A half a million? Really? THAT house? Ew.

[@splatninja9447]

Right???

[@ycoyle2803]

The lot is worth about $400k.

[@Revkor]

no deed, no lease. She is a squatter

[@rebeccabrown6785]

Of course she wants the house. I mean, who wouldn't want a free house. She needs to be kicked out, the house sold and the proceeds go toward the rightful owners care.

[@VigilanceTech]

There's a maxim of law that says "a good faith improver of real property is entitled to just compensation."

[@tpatrickl9539]

A half million dollar home in the Denver area isn’t anything great. Local prices are out of control already. I hope they get her out of there. Not a fan of crap weasels.

[@Graahk-r8u]

most denver sales are demod anyways and rebuilt.

[@AdrianMunch]

This is Colorado ? In Michigan, disabled people have guardians, Legal guardians because there’s yearly paperwork. Second, Dead people with no will their estate goes to PROBATE court for adjudication . Someone had to take care of the old man’s body…. She’s a squatter and someone’s guardian needs to audited. See where the money is going .

[@Gunguy11004]

If I can “have the house” she doesn’t wanna pay for shit. She would have said I’m willing to pay for it. 200k in upgrades is fine and dandy but if the house is worth 482k she needs to pay the 482k to the grand daughter not fix it up for herself

[@kokabr]

Well, she lived in the house rent-free for over a year. Whatever she spent on home improvements would go toward the rent she should have paid. Other than that, if anyone voluntarily does home improvements without being asked to, while squatting in someone’s home, that's their loss. I hope the state provides justice to the legal house owners and doesn't let someone take advantage of their vulnerabilities. It would be sad to see someone steal the house from them.

[@pharaoh3333]

Verbal agreement..are you kidding me rn

[@StellaDog-ul8rr]

This woman is a squatter. This is terrible. Take advantage of a handicap citizen that should have a guardian should be actually living in this home. This woman’s a liar and a thief should be going in jail. What example

[@SkacyMaeTarot]

Oh yeah. She gotta get out the hell out of babygirls house. Simple.

[@Talkswithtee302]

She took advantage of that poor girl

[@KB-ke3fi]

How in the world can that little barn be worth $500,000? That's the only crazy part of this story. I wouldn't pay $50k for it.

[@carrotsandpotatoes5019]

😢 The squatter should be given prison time for 30 years.

[@MarySmith-bc7mf]

They are the worst

[@rebeccarittenhouse2203]

That is insane. What is wrong with you?

[@carrotsandpotatoes5019]

@@rebeccarittenhouse2203 it's free and she doesnt have to steal it. Maybe it'll give her time to relax and think about all the reasons why she shouldn't have tried to take advantage of someone else's property.

When you’re still guessing as to what’s going on, just go ahead with assumptions and hearsay.

Show me the receipts for the improvements.

[@amandavaladez6776]

How do you fight for something that isn’t yours.

[@kittenpawsbb]

200K? She could have purchased another home with that. The house doesn’t look like, what’s its estimated worth. Did anyone notice the interior, why isn’t it furnished properly?

[@MIMMarketing]

0:47 wow 1/2 a million dollar home. They try to make it sound so expensive. 1/2 million is not a high end home. Not now anyways.

[@shAnn0n1]

The RIGHTFUL OWNER will be family, even if the family never met the man who died a year ago, and if there's no family, the city will take it.

[@tracyjohnson5023]

The house DOES have a legal owner! When people die without a will, next of kin is the surviving spouse. When there is no surviving spouse, any living children are next of kin that have equal shares for all property (house, car, personal property and effects) money, stocks. When children are deceased, their children are next of kin. No children, then the deceased siblings, cousins and so on down the line are next of kin. This is after all outstanding bills owed by decedent are paid. Whatever is left of estate afterwards goes to next of kin. This woman cannot obtain legal documents that will allow her to put deed in her name. She can lie, forge signatures of granddaughter and notary, but the latter will be tough to do. The granddaughter seems like she's not going to go to a notary with the squatter to sign a deed and the estate has to go through probate first for the deed to be legal since owner died without a will. However, the squatter will stay until evicted by court multiple times in most states. I'll bet that the institution/supported living where the granddaughter resides will take up this fight on her behalf because they will end up with the money to care for granddaughter as they should.
