Lawmakers in Tallahassee are taking action to address squatting. This comes after a loophole in the law that made it harder to evict unwanted guests than it would for lawful tenants.

...Because not all landlords are honest, and, because we have no overarching system that keeps track of who has a valid lease and who doesn't (and rent payments made), the law doesn't know when the problem is squatters or a landlord trying to skirt the eviction process. However, I *DO* think squatters should be charged with criminal trespass and held responsible for both back rent and ALL damages to the property before being set free.

If you knew the history of the United States of America, you wouldn't be asking this question. I learned about why squatters rights exist during high school. You could even learn about it from a search on the internet. It really isn't outrageous when you consider the circumstances that gave rise to squatters' rights. You may not agree with them, but they were created by lawmakers for a reason, and they seemed like a fair solution to many people at the time..

It's not that they have "rights" its that they EXPLOIT laws that are designed to protect lawful TENANTS from horrible landlords. So, they squat in someone's house, CLAIM to be "TENANTS" by producing a bogus lease,and because the police cannot/do not have authority to determine the legality of that claim in that moment then it becomes a civil matter (owner has to prove in court they are not tenants) . So, they don't have rights...tenants have protection against unlawful eviction and these squatters exploit those laws.

Sadly, often times these squatters use the law in their favor or know how to do things that make it appear they legally own/rent the property. One of the tougher issues is that many places allow you to claim ownership or residency by having bills in your name or getting mail to the address (more just to make the process easier in case someone moves into a family members home or after the death of someone that the family or friend might want the home). However, you do sometimes run into the issue that the people inside the home is being scammed or have a legit reason/arguement why they are there. So that is why it usually a civil court case so a judge can easily hear both sides.

Never go to police or court. Quietly hire thugs to go into the house and evict them by force. Change the locks. If any complaints are filed you know nothing. The squatters have no case as they are not occupying the building. The laws in the USA is against the good, honest citizens, and greatly favor the criminal. That is all you need to know as to what to do.

Laws protecting squatters goes back hundreds of years and are the same in the UK and other countries. I firmly agree that it's past time those laws be either revoked or re-written and give property owners a better legal claim on their own property. Squatters can even take over your home while you are away on vacation or if you allow a person(s) to stay in your home where they bring their belongings with them. Beware. Currently, it's hell to get them out.

My professor kept telling me to get past it but my mind simply could not rationalize how this was possible. I do not practice property law but being aware of this law guaranteed that I never bought a second home. If this law passes, I will definitely start purchasing more property in Florida. I love this state. It is definitely the best state in the U.S. This is a place where you can actually protect your kids from predators, and you can now also protect your property.

About time some legislation is brought about to address this ongoing nationwide issue. It is not only homes but apartments to, if the tenant is away for a month or so. Someone can break in and start living there as a squatter. It happened to one young man he came back and found people living there and all his items were gone. The years after my father passed away, I was always concerned about squatters. However, I was blessed to have family that constantly checked on the property and GREAT neighbors that looked out for me as well. I was thinking about renting it so I could keep the property if I ever decided to move back to Georgia, but glad I went on and sold it. Deed theft needs to be addressed as well. So sorry her beautiful home was treated with such utter disrespect.

I feel bad for the woman who owned this house, but this is to be expected during end stage capitalism. Having worked for the US Census, I saw so many empty homes, that was the real outrage. All these empty homes sit unused why rents go up and up and wages stagnate.. I would talk with neighbors to get information on empty homes, and many are empty for years or even decades. Older people are sitting on property, letting it go unused and abandoned while young people can't afford a home. The system is outrageous, and it will produce more problems like this until we decide to address root problems. Squatter are like coyotes, try to exterminate them and they will just increase and expand their range. Middle class land owners will not win this battle without losing far more than their unoccupied properties, they will lose more freedom and this news story is fluffing us for that coming moment. It's designed to help us accept The Great Reset. It's propaganda designed to divide us!

What I want to know is how is squatting not trespassing or breaking and entering both are a crime? Squatting should never be tolerated because it's someones property and no different then stealing and should be treated as such. This need to stop and it needs addressed.

Right after I bought my house(in Florida)a few months ago someone came in and left beer bottles on the dinning room table. On that day I nailed a board over the front door. The next day I went by there and someone had forced the door open. Whoever did this didn't stay in the house maybe because the utilities were off. Watch your vacant homes folks.

First mistake was calling police or contacting any public agency. What you need to do is handle it yourself. Or at least get some family or friends to help. Stand your ground

If you have a squatter...rent the place they are squatting in to someone who will move in and give them hell...the new tenant has rights and a lease that they can prove they belong. Fastest way to deal with it.

Watch the squatters start forging documents next 😒 There are a lot of notaries in Florida that should never have gotten their commission and don’t really understand what the purpose of their notary seal and signature is. I could see this, turning into another problem for property owners, and I hope that people are quick to find ways to address it so these squatters stop having the run of peoples homes. They should already be charged under existing laws for property damage and vandalism and I don’t know why police are saying it’s a civil matter when walls have been ripped open and appliances have been stolen.

This is disheartening. It is hard to believe there are not current laws that automatically protect the legal home owner. In South Fulton County Georgia (South Atlanta). Property owners rights are protected against Squatters. The owner notifies the Sheriffs Department. Proves ownership and that Squatters have illegally moved into the house they own. The Sheriff Department goes to home and does an immediate “Extraction”. Putting all Squatters possessions on street if they do not vacate immediately. This law makes more sense.

Move in a trusted family member with a real lease. The minute both these ladies are out shopping (or stealing) have the biggest trusted family member move in with a real lease from you,AND CHANGE THE LOCKS! Your family member then squats the squatters and they are not allowed back in once locks are changed. Then have all your friends come move the squtters stuff to the curb. The will not take you to court because they know they will be locked up. Then you are done with them. You will have to keep someone in he house 24-7 for the next couple months to prevent them from coming back, but they will move on.

Being a landlord is hard. Your living below your means to invest, taking a risk, tenants can murder you, not pay rent, house destroyed, all to hopefully live a richer future, while your never garunteed tomorrow. And being a landlord is a job that takes hours per month, on top of your normal job. Technically you should get paid time and a half for Overtime for anything over 40 hours per week.

If you rent out ANYTHING require photo ID and take a photo of all indivuals allowed to reside there and have a water mark on ever page of your leases.. Beginning with this kind of record keeping will give you something to immediately prove the legitimacy of any paperwork the squatte may produce.

It’s not squatters that have the rights it’s tenants. They’re showing assigned lease and they’re committing fraud. So it’s not the fact that they’re squatting. It’s the fact that they’re committing fraud to stay in the woman’s house. There’s no law that says squatters have a right to stay in a house. Unless they can do it for a certain number of years 10 or 20.

that woman requesting a police report sounds like she knows her squatter rights. i would also sue them close to tax time as they probably dont own anything of value.

This needs to be law across the country. Although I'm curious what will happen to adverse possession. Not a lawyer but it might still be possible for this to work when the true owners of a property don't contest the "squatters." Which seems to be what these bad actors are exploiting

This needs to be addressed and laws made and changed across the whole USA. It is ridiculous that someone can just move into your property leaving you unable to evict them and they should each and everyone of the squatters that pull these stunts should get some serious jail time and should be evicted and arrested each and every time they pull this low life crap😡😡😡
