So someone breaks into a house via lock pick, drill the lock, break a window is called “burglary”. Then brings their suitcase of cloths in is now called a squatter…wow. Thanks to Florida getting the ball rolling, let’s hope the rest of the country follows awesome Florida.

Ok, just sent an email to my 2 Senators and 1 Representative on the squatting issue. Hope that helps. It is absurd that people think they can just move into someone else's home. Even more absurd that the law will not do anything about it if it happens.

The squatting problem has its roots in the common law of adverse possession. That was originally meant for situations where a property is truly abandoned for years and someone who needs a home sees that no one is there so they take it over. Common law was 20 years of possession to get title. What we're seeing now is not what adverse possession law had in mind.

I noticed another deed was attached to my county property records. It appeared as if my home had been sold in 2019 - not true. The deed listed the other persons name and address but my lot number! Our lot numbers are not similar. I went to their house in my subdivision to alert them of the error. The owner wouldn’t speak to me and left the house as I was approaching but her partner whose name is not on the deed did talk to me. She knew I was on my way over to discuss. That was a major red flag for me. I’ve contacted the title company to report the error. They said they’d contact the underwriter for the fix. It’s been 2 weeks and the error is still on my property records. I’m hoping I don’t have to pay an attorney to clear this issue, but I will if I need to. I learned about the free title alert service offered my county property appraiser office and immediately signed up! The county clerk didn’t seem alarmed when I reported the error. Told me that it happens often and I could let it remain until I was ready to sell and then address it. WTH? Crazy, I know. People, take time to check your property records randomly.

To protect your deed from fraudsters trying to reclaim the home back from before you purchased it, you need Owner's Title Insurance. Here's more information: clark.com/insurance/owners-title-insurance/ Here are ways to protect your deed from future fraudsters: * If your county offers it, sign up for their FREE notification system. As the property owner of record, you’ll be notified when someone attempts an action against your title, such as taking out a loan. * Make sure your credit is frozen so that no one can take out a loan against your title. * Pay attention to your mail. If you start getting weird mail from lenders or frequent mail addressed to someone who doesn't live in your home, there may be fraudulent activities happening. Contact your county, if you suspect anything. Hope this helps! 💚

Just about 2 weeks ago a newscast clip posted on KZbin showed a young woman being taken away in handcuffs by police because she tried to change the locks on her own home in which squatters had moved in and changed the original locks. When the squatters changed the original locks the police showed up and did nothing. They just claimed that it was a "civil matter". When the homeowner later attempts to change the locks on her own home it is a criminal matter. The squatters have more rights than the homeowners.

The squatter problem is really not difficult . It's illegal to trespass on property that is not your own . You can easily find the owner of a property online so police should look this up before they go to a trespassing call . The other part is documentation of a rental agreement that is fraudulent . I think rental agreements may need to be filed with a government agency as like a deed . This is not a law problem . It's a documentation problem . There can be a small rental tax to cover any governmental documentation needed .

I'm confused about this deed theft. Seems to me that even if you're the victim of this (i.e., you're the legitimate owner of the property), once you prove that the deed xfer is fraudulent (which should be relatively easy to do even without a lawyer), it should be game over for the fraudster and for whomever thought they were purchasing your property. I'm not seeing how anyone could hold you responsible and take your property once it becomes obvious to everyone that deed fraud is involved. Based on this, why would you need to pay for "deed insurance" or "deed monitoring"?

Please - show me where I am incorrect. Better IMHO to write a complaint to the FTC or the FCC or some government (both state & federal) entity.

Regarding adverse possession as mentioned by another commenter…you would be wise to check the adverse possession laws of your state. Dont go by someone saying the time required for adverse property takeover is 20 years. In my state, there is an additional scenario where someone might be able to take possession of all or a portion of your property in an adverse possession claim in a much shorter span of time. Know the property laws where you live.

The next door neighbor saw a man get out of the van and look in towards my home. She asked him what he needed? He asked her, "Who lives here?" My neighbor was suspicious of the man so she just said, "A whole bunch of people live there." The man then got in his van and left. I don't know anyone that drives a blue van. I suspect squatter want a be's were looking for a home to break into. I'm nervous to leave my home, now. It's sad. 😢

Previously when the squatters changed the original locks while the homeowner was away and the homeowner called the police to the property the police stated there was nothing they could do, it was a civil matter. When the homeowner does it on their own home it is an arrestable crime per the same police department. The police department involved in that situation is totally ridiculous and not using any common sense.

Some squatters have been calling professional locksmiths to replace all the locks while the homeowner is still away on vacation. The homeowner comes back from vacation and cannot get inside their own property with people living inside.

What is an HSA

An HSA is great. I have enough in money in my HSA that my annual medical deductible is covered by my investment income in the HSA.

If I came home and found a 'squatter', I would force entry, drag out all the occupants and their belongings, and then call the police. Now the legal system would do nothing to me as we wait until we go to court, which we won't because the squatters will be long-gone. Just do not involve the police or legal system. This is only my opinion of what I will do.

Just rather use my 3% cash back credit card then game playing reward that gave me runaround. If I had a squater my bookie has connections with two big mean take no crap bikers. Might cost me over a grand to have them remove nogoodnic free loaders but would save six months or more and time wasted going downtown several times.

The squatting era is indicative of the wealth disparity in this country. It pains me to see Real Estate sitting empty while elderly, widows and mothers with children live on the street. Homes and rentals have become unaffordable due to corporate acquisitions and the spread of short term vacation rentals. While I'm not opposed to passing clarifying legislation, we need to address the causes.

I could see some leeway for the situation of a homeless person or a family moving into an abandoned "shack" in rough shape that hasn't been occupied for many years and is cheaper to simply demolish and start from new construction. Then the owner happens to visit his property / lot months or a year later and is outraged to see a person or family inside and wants to immediately kick them out onto the street. That sounds rough. That is not the situation of so-called squatting that people want to stop now.

@@jimfarmer7811 I probably only started really playing the rewards game about 15 years ago, but easily have made $7500/8000 in that time. Not a big traveler so not worried about airline points or hotel points. I use my points to redeem for gift cards., Mostly gas cards, as I accumulate points, I cash them in for 25 and $50 gift cards for BP, Exxon, shell, and sheetz. Once in a while, I will get a restaurant one or Lowes. As you stated, never once have I paid one penny in fees or interest to me it’s free money for things I would’ve bought anyway

It should be harder to get a credit card or if a person has a credit card, it should be closed the moment the limit is reached and a mandatory three year cooling off period before reinstated. Then irresponsibility will be weeded out.

We believe that a good credit score is vital. It determines things like what you pay for insurance and what interest rates you get for home and auto. We encourage responsible use of credit cards to achieve this, but also encourage no credit cards for people who can't use them responsibly (i.e. paying off the balance entirely each month). 💚

Well if you pay your bill on time you don't have nothing to worry about. Also you get the cash back however the credit card merchant and the card company is over charging and it better to pay with cash and that shit sucks but it helps inflation and I lose out on cash back in it hurts my credit utilizations.
