  • A DeKalb County homeowner says squatters broke into his vacant rental house last week and changed the locks while he was caring for his sick wife. “Basically, these people came in Friday, broke into my house and had a U-Haul move all their stuff in. It’s frustrating. It’s very frustrating. I can’t even sleep,” the homeowner said.

      There were some squatters in Chicago that would not leave, so the homeowners broke some windows and let the utilities go unpaid. It was in the winter, so he froze them out.

He made his own lease, his mom being the landlord and him the tenant. He waited untl the crooks left and he broke in. He changed the locks and installed cameras.

    Watch the house, pay someone if you have too, just watch it until you see every one of those scumbags leave. Once they are out of the house go inside and have a lease all ready written up with a friend or family member and have that person there with you. Immediately change the locks and when the scumbags come back and they call the cops you show the lease with your actual current tenant who is right next to you (your friend or family member) and yourself as the owner with all paperwork and proof you own it right there with you. The scumbags have no choice but to leave, their own game was used against them by the actual owner. We need to change all these squatter laws NOW!

    Yes , Pass the new law , squatters should be made to know they can't just move in to other people's home & have more rights than the home owner who put his heart & soul into that home. So hoping it happens , the bullsh💩t 's gotta stop.
