If you rent a car for the weekend and try to keep it for a month and refuse to pay additional fees, you can be charged with a felony. Residential space shouldn't be any different.

There needs to be a law to send squatters to jail and have them pay restitution for all the damage. I am shocked that there isn't already a law for this to happen.

There needs to be an online register for known squatters.

Had a squatter claim to be a Sovereign Citizen who claimed he did not have to pay rent. Then filed a Pauper claim. Took 18 months in eviction court and legal fees. FBI got involved on the Sovereign Citizen issue and he did some fraud. He ended up in prison for 5 years.

A registry should be compiled and put on line with known squatters so that home owners can look up information on potential renters. .complete with photos

For everyone’s sake, people need to start taking pictures of the squatters. Start passing their picture around to family members, friends and so on. Keep it going all on social media

A land owner made himself a legal tenant of his late mother's house that had squatters. He moved in and changed the locks. The squatters called the police but he produced the lease thereby giving him renters rights. He scheduled a time for the squatters to get their possessions but he had his guys move the items to the curb. No setting foot on the property.

If this stuff was falsified, then it should be immediate cause for eviction and the start to a fraud case for prosecution.

My husband is a property manager, he was checking out a potential tenant. Everything looked great on paper. He decided to look up the owner of the house the prospective tenants were currently living in. It didn't match the landlord's name these people put down. He found the real landlords, called them and the tenants were 6 months behind on rent. Be careful of tenants looking for a place right away, they're probably being evicted. Good tenants look for a place 2-3 months in advance. Be careful of someone who's too perfect on paper. Ask why they're moving? Do due diligence.

Pensioners grappling with the difficulty of meeting essential expenses often encounter this situation due to inadequate savings during their working years. The decisions taken in readiness for retirement carry extensive consequences, as demonstrated within my own family dynamics. Differing investment approaches yielded disparate results. Guided by a financial advisor.

These people should be charged with felonies and at this point already in jail.

Send them a $200 gift card to Hometown Buffet from a bogus business. When they all go out to eat, change the locks, and toss their stuff on to the street. 😂

I don't understand why they can't simply get kicked out, and charged for FRAUD and falsified documents at the very LEAST. Bruh. Are they not able to get in trouble for that?

Laws must be changed in order for people to be held responsible. Unbelievable.

My best friend rented out a property she had inherited. Their 2nd renter stopped paying rent after just 3 months. After a few months of this, there was a break in when the tenants were out. My friend was told by neighbours. She got a locksmith to change the locks and police were called, who confirmed a break in. She put a note on the door telling the tenants of the break in, and asking them to come to her house to get a new key. They didn't turn up. My friend did some renovations and sold the house. The burglars were friends who did my pal a favour!

Never let the tenant give you their background check. This is common sense. Landlords should hire third party vendors to do all background checks. The tenants can alway falsify documents but not a third party vendor that’s their to do background checks and to make sure the documents are legitimate.

How is this not TRESPASSING?!!??! I don't understand! Trespassing, vandalism, destruction of property, mental anguish.... They should be in prison, and forced to pay restitution if they ever get out! It's like the victims have no rights at all. Unbelievable.

My brother was a police officer in Marin County for 30 years, and he was very familiar with serial squatters. He would talk about one family who had never paid a dime of rent for years. It's incredible. There has to be an equitable way to handle this and the laws needs to be changed. A lot of owners are just trying to get a retirement income from a couple of houses. Covid was really a blow to them. On the other side, there have been tenants that have rented long term and suddenly get a notice that their rent is going from 1500.00 per month to 3500.00 per month. It has happened across the country. Florida has been a huge participant in those kinds of increases. You don't pay, you're out. It has contributed to the homeless situation of families. So, whose the villain? It depends. In this case Mario and his people are certainly jerks. I wonder how some of this behavior doesn't get on his credit report. Maybe it's illegal and is considering slandering him? There has to be a way to make laws that are sensible and protect the owner and the tenant.

I heard a landlord in court say he rather go to jail for dragging tenants out than have them live rent free for years.
