Why squatters have any rights is beyond absurd
Only in America mate!
It’s to stop people contesting ownership with old deeds/ documents and is linked to preventing violent land disputes in feudal times
@@masseiy : Feudal times? I don't understand how this applies today? Anywhere else in the world it would be regarded as trespassing.
Nope...check out the UK....@@kryztofkowalski4628
@@kryztofkowalski4628 as I know Spain has the same problem
It is mind-boggling to me that in so many states, squatters have rights that they shouldn't have.
And don’t forget, contrary to the false narrative out there, this is a case happening in a Republican run state, not just states like California.
This is by design folks!! People lose their homes to banks for far cheaper and can resell it
It baffles me everytime
Blame the democrats
@@mn3582 🤣😂 Dude, do you not comprehend the fact that this story (right in the title) is a fully Republican controlled state?!?!
These aren't merely squatters they're career thieves, this is how they live.
Do we not agree that a home (just a basic shelter) should be given to you by law? Why is homelessness even an option? No wonder people do extravagant things to secure shelter.
A million dollar home is a different story but the point remains; shelter is a basic human necessity.
@@nickthompson1812extravagant things? Like not having basic human decency to pay rent to the owner? Squatters should not have rights over the owners. I almost lived in a phone booth as a teen, so I know what hardship is. I worked 3 jobs and went to college while supporting my child in my 20s, so I'm not looking at this from an entitled view either.
@@nickthompson1812you’re so off base with this comment. This isn’t a story about basic human needs.
@@nickthompson1812 And how many homeless people are YOU giving the right to shelter to in your home?
Con artists, grifters. Parasites on society
The fact that they cannot be thrown out physically is absurd. It is their home, they should have the right to remove any unwanted guest from their home without persecution.
Squatting should not be legal. Too many lib states legalized it a decade ago.
Oh they can. You just need some industrious friends 😂
You can. You just can't get the police to do it for you because it's a civil matter. People are just pussies.
lol. So, she rented a 10,000 dollar a month property without collecting any of the money upfront and you think that is the fault of the person who is renting the property that she is dumb?
If she is that dumb not to get the entirety of the funds up front then that is her fault. In a rental, there is normally first, last, deposit. In airbnb, there is pay all the money and then move in so the fact that she claimed airbnb but for some reason rented the place outside airbnb just goes tro show that she was scamming airbnb and got scammed while trying to stick it to airbnb. I mean, it happens.
@@bjvu9460 found the criminal.
Why aren't they banned by all the short term rental platforms?
Wrong question!
@@Gfysimpletons why is that a wrong question?
Because the owner didn't actually go through a rental platform. That's why she's having problems.
They can use a cc under another persons name to book.
@@mrbear1302 No, they used Airbnb.
We need to normalize a simple lifestyle and stop normalizing debt. Huge SUVs, huge houses and private universities are simply not necessary. I live within my budget and I sleep better at night knowing that if I lose my job tomorrow, ' be fine. I didn't buy the biggest house. I bought the one I could comfortably repay
Yeah can being frugal be sexy please? recently mentioned that I'm frugal to a young woman and she gave me the weirdest look... Being financially responsible is looked down on
I wish I could find it, but I remember reading a study once that claimed financially insolvent men had 1.5-2x more sexual partners than their financially solvent counterparts.
I think people should also seriously look into investing of some kind. Something that brings money back to your pocket, real estate, stocks, whatever can bring back value to their bank account rather than draining it. Obviously investing has its risks but so does just having money in depreciating assets or straight up liabilities.
Big house suv. Bruh you got people driving Honda civics, living in a 1 bedroom apartment and not a luxury one at that living paycheck to paycheck.
The median rent is 2000. A lot of financial professionals especially the one I work with Samuel Peter Descovich agree that one should not spend more than 30% of their gross income on rent. That means you need to make a minimum of about $80,000. Interesting considering the median income is $54,000.
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. Your coach was simple to discover online. I did my research on him before I wrote to him. He appears knowledgeable based on his online resume.
People like this shouldn’t just be evicted…they should be arrested and charged…they are scamming people out of money by doing this.
This is theft straight up. He and his wife should be in jail and the kids taken by Social Services.
Agree with you definitely theft a few months of a dog cage probably help them figure it out and the kids should definitely go bye-bye!
Absolutely
And look at what it is teaching their kids.
LOL, so I got to pay for their kids now?
Deport them.
The Airbnb is right. This shouldn't take months, it should only take a few hours. Don't pay, get out
When courts allow squatters to continue to reside in YOUR home that’s when the courts should be held responsible for the consequences and bills acquired during their stay. This is theft!
Can you imagine being on vacation for a week or two and someone is already living in your house, with access to all your belongings and you literally can't do anything about it because it takes no less than six months and thousands of dollars? What kind of crap is this?
I would NEVER rent a nice house like that out on ANY platform.
Exactly my thought. If I have $1 million to invest in an airbnb, I’ll do things much differently like doing my own due diligence
Well clearly it works for her because she's been doing it for years. One piece of shit can't ruin everything...
This is why as a airbnb owner you can't allow people to stay long periods. You run the risk of them being protected by squatter laws after a certain period of time.
'This is why you don't rent your house out to people for long, the government is corrupt and allows people to magically be the new owner.'
I fixed your stupid speak for you.
How long is that period?
It doesn’t matter this lady had a weekend stay and did the same thing.
And why are there laws protecting squatters? Can
Can't the home owners have the utilities cut off?
@@mariahardy1201In certain places across America, that’s a form of illegal “Constructive Eviction”, as in the Homeowner can face legal charges for doing something like that
A portal needs to be created with names by state and city of individuals who have done this, so that homeowners can carefully vet and lease their property to honest individuals.
This will be the answer the way I see it
There is a portal. It is called actually using Airbnb or vrbo for rental. This lady was trying to get away with not having to use any of those businesses and avoid the fees that come along with it; which would have helped her avoid this. She spent more in lawyer fees than she would have if she had used the proper rental companies!
The USA uses your credit rating for just about everything. While we don't in Canada, if you're not going to vet. don't rent to people you can't track. This guy sounds like he doesn't have English as a first or even second language, Eastern Bloc?? Look at him. You're renting a luxury house to a guy that looks like this??!
A fake name they steal is like ID theft? If they can, they will beat this program, too.
@@mrbear1302 I'm a little old fashioned, but that's her business with what she does with her property. Doesn't permit people to be liars or thieves.
Defrauding an innkeeper can be a criminal rather than a civil issue.
Congratulations with the big dick and ignorance
Criminal matters don't matter to criminals...
They would have to admit to running unlicensed hotels out of residential properties then.
its not a crime; it's civil matter.
Entitled Thug capital of the world
Squatters must receive prison time.
... and get billed for it as well!
and the award for ignorance goes to...
That’s just a squat with free food and health care.
So you want us tax payers to pay for their jail time? Fuck that lol.
@@teamofone1219 yeah, criminals need jail time. You must be a big biden / soros fantard.
Air Bnb is ruining real estate
Squatters are not Airbnb. Renters with leases do the same.
Don't let strangers rent your premises and you won't have this problem.
I would have trouble renting to anyone. My little Brother stole thousands from our Father, then stole thousands more from our dying Middle Brother. And his Wife helped him.
What could possibly go wrong doing this in America...in 2023? 😆
It’s bad enough when you DO know your tenants.
Family can be just a bad.
Law abiding citizens continue to have the deck stacked against them!
Just so we are clear though, the "squatter protections" are actually there because of bad landlords who frequently abused law abiding tenants. There has to be a distinguished line between tenant and squatter to make this right.
@@TravisDoesKayakFishing That's not why.
@@ottomueller4425 Yes it is. "Squatter laws" as they are freely called, came from unfair and unlawful landlord practices. They are abused because the line is too thin. Have you never looked into why protections like these exists?

How exactly did these “Professional Squatters” rent such a luxury home from Airbnb at $10,000.00 month? Aren’t Airbnb rentals done online with credit cards? Doesn’t the payment goes through first? I have never rented an Airbnb but, I‘m assume that that’s the way it works.
Yeah, lots of questions on how this is even possible…
She obviously didn't do it through Airbnb or vrbo. Probably trying to avoid the fees that come with using those rental companies. Well, now she has paid more in lawyer fees than she would have paid in Airbnb fees.
@mrbear1302 so you don't believe the part where it says it was an AirBnB rental?
@@davidpawson9047 Airbnb wouldn't have allowed it to be rented without being paid for up front. She said several times she hadn't received any money at all.
@mrbear1302 People have stopped payment on cards before, they'll do it again. If the host "canceled" the reservation in order to avoid fees, that is a problem of their own making. However, relatively few guests will carry 10k on them, and few hosts will set up their own credit card acceptance account. If the guest canceled last minute to avoid paying (which is a possibility), that is fraud. I suspect this may be the more likely case: acquire the check-in info, then cancel and depend on the host not being able to react in time.
You can’t keep a rental car past the due date or they will report it stolen, it should be the same for Airbnb
Why? Why in the hell don't we have nation wide no-squatter laws against these types of crimes?
Shameless. Simply shameless. With the encouragement from authorities such as de-criminalization of thievery, people just became shameless.
its not thievery if you gave it to the person and beyond that, it becomes hearsay . Now, if they had a business license and this had happened, then, the business is protected under a different scope of law since a business is expected to trade service or product for goods. Now, I have seen business have to go through the court process to evict tenants but the law would be more in favor of a business.
Why anyone would let random people stay in their homes without any vetting whatsoever is baffling

A hotel wouldn’t have this issue to evict once the person stops paying for the room. The cops would immediately be called and they would be told to vacate by force immediately. Why is an Airbnb any different?
It's mind boggling that this actually can happen in America. Once somebody is not paying that's criminal trespassing and they should literally be removed that same day, not a month later and after a landlord has to go through an eviction process. I simply don't understand how any law can permit this to happen.
Because when the police show up the squatter will claim (and often show) a fake lease. When they do so - and their stuff is in the location - the police can't really do anything because it's a civil matter. The police have no way of knowing whether the lease is fake or if it's just a vindictive landlord trying to use the police to illegally evict real tenants.
This lady did it to herself by not actually using Airbnb.
Welcome to America
This happens every countries
It’s so bad out there my mom has rentals and constantly deals with this stuff. Not to mention property damage. She’s been to court so many times to evict people for non payment.
Who tf lets someone come stay at a bnb without payment upfront?
That's what I was thinking
We've always paid up front
You have to pay upfront. But if you pay for two days and don’t leave for two months, two days worth of payment is virtually worthless.
@@schrodingerscat8621 if you pay for two days and are still there on the third a famous hand held device with a trigger is introduced to the party.
@@RhumpleOriginal And because of the insane laws, you now go to prison.
They banned airbnb in my neighborhood they can't even open one any longer because all the trouble that comes with them.
Wow $10k/mo? I would think background check, and upfront deposit would be required before renting out. Hell, we had to go through backround, credit check, deposit and 1st month, while signing our life away with the contract before we could rent a place temporarily while looking for our new home, and the rent was $2400! (Which is expensive to us!)
Way overdue to have an expedited process to handle squatters such as these. Currently the process seems to favor deadbeats.
Don't forget getting Air BnB to follow same laws as other hotels and the like. No more special treatment for people buying homes and renting them as investments. Homes are for living in, not receiving a rent pay check from. Build an apartment complex if you want to be a land lord.
10k.. how'd he get in it
Finally someone asks the right question!
These serial squatters are the lowest form of life on earth. And the very idea that there is absolutely nothing you can do to get justice is downright absurd. It flies in the face of everything that is decent and just.
Naw, price gauging renters and running them out of town is the problem. Rent to regular working people and you won't get richer quicker, but maybe you'll sleep at night.
The law allows it, that it brings chaos & confusion. Just like those shoplifters = don't try to stop them from stealing merchandise, which favors criminals
But he can afford an attorney though
I knew a landlord that would get 10 of his buddy's, remove the tenent/people in the unit, pack up their stuff put it in storage. Then change the locks put an armed guard at the location, done. Once they stop paying rent they should lose all tenent rights.
Illegal, but I'm all for it
@@RichRotorhead unfortunately
Ive seen other stories about these very people. They've done it all over the country.
These squatters are professional criminals. It would be nice if District Attorneys would do their job and prosecute.
Until a few senators are in this position nothing will change 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Would be nice if it didn't take a simple case 10 or 11 months to go to court... This could be handled in days if every state fast tracked these cases like some states are now doing.
I don't understand how they could stay there if hadn't paid AirBnB prior to their syay. Whenever I stayed at them I had to pay upfront. 🤔
This is ridiculous!
He needs to be jailed.. no free lunches here!!! How can this go on so long? Evidently the law needs revision!!!
Airbnb makes it very clear to hosts that if guests stay long term over 30 days, airbnb waives any liability and the host must abide by all local tenant landlord laws. She should have known that already
She didn't go through Airbnb.
The term "squatter's rights" is an oxymoron.
My ex's ex did this very thing for years. She would rent nice houses, put down just enough to get in the door and then fight eviction for months on end. Their little girl said she never unpacked boxes or suitcases because it was always a matter of time.
😮
So cruel to put your child through that!
Seem to be self entitled, and taking advantage of people. Just didn't run into the right one!
At last! My dream of luxury living can come true! California seems to be the easiest place, and my dog will love the ocean. Hell, I can come up with the first month’s, but from then on, the place is mine, sucker.
Thats the risks of being a airbnb host. Im glad that the market is crashing, and cities get back much needed housing, and hotels/motels get back business.
There are laws that protect these people, they just don't bother to research the fact that someone in your home for 30 days or more is usually a defacto tenant.
This is what those real estate gurus will never tell you about. There are people who go around doing this
Hire an agent, that requires credit checks, etc.
These owners are just being cheap trying to cut out a middleman. Serves them right. Penny wise, pound foolish
Hustlers
I'd like to sympathize, but airbnbs are taking available rentals off the market and driving up the prices of existing rental properties
That’s interesting because I did an air bnb and the host wasn’t paying rent and I got evicted it was crazy 🤦🏽♀️
That’s crazy! You have to evict them wow! He can afford a lawyer but not pay rent!
Unfortunately, this is the risk many take when renting out their property
The simple solution to these type of rentals is having the power breaker and water shutoffs outside of the rental property. Ideally inside your own home if the rental is on the same property. Trust me once the water and power get cut the rental won't be so desirable anymore.
Not worth renting.
question.....as someone who struggles to pay rent....why should i care about owners of multiple properties? the american dream is profiting off of others necessities😊
Did the owner reach an agreement with those people outside of Air bnb because that is how the "rental" goes bad really quickly?
Why doesn't the USA simply adopt the UK law making it illegal to squat in a residential property?
Problem solved.
He's lying, he lies about everything. They are a family of grifters, nothing more. Their picture needs to be plastered all over the state to help others avoid having to deal with them. One simple tip..get the money up front. There needs to be a website that displays the info on serial squatters.
They need clarity in the law that short term renters are guests and can be evicted at anytime.
Except we already have a system in place for that, it is called being a hotel. AirBnB wants it both ways where they aren't tenant rentals but also not guest stays, because then it would mean they would either have to admit that they are a fly by night shady leasing agency or running unlicensed hotels. They can only operate as a business because of the current grey area.
So someone could pay for a two week rental and then the landlord could have the police evict them after 1 day and keep the money? Yeah, that's a great idea. 🙄
AirBnB wants to operate like a hotel but they offer none of the protections of one. What they're really offering are short term leases but that makes their patrons tenants, not guests. If they want to have the same protections as hotels, then they're going to need to be registered as businesses, operate only in commercial zoned areas and play things like hotel taxes.
Courts need to hear these cases in days.. not months... Thats the real problem is most states won't fast track simple cases like this....
How in the WORLD did they qualify to rent this ABnB? Didn't the renter have enough sense to check them out?
Hold did she just say 10k per month. He'll no,you could buy a house of your own and pay mortgage. Wow.
These squatters premeditated this. They look for places they know the law gives squatters rights. They knew exactly what they were doing.
My dads friend had problems with squatter in the 80s in california.turns out my dad's friend was the mechanic used by a local hells angels MC AND HE ASKED for a favor in trade of free work for the head of the chapters motorcycle. They sent 5 of their biggest guys to walk in the door and tell the people to leave its their place now. These people left but had trashed the place. Turned it into a meth head flop house. So the owner had them rounded up and put to work to repay for repairs and back rent. It really wasn't level by forcing the people to work but there were no tater laws back then. The guy just didn't want the cops involved. Now it seems squatters have more rights than the owners themselves.which is so wrong. Squatting in my opinion is breaking and entering and theft.
And does this man have a job? Can you apply a lien on his wages at his employer? Is is a legal resident? Or an illegal immigrant? Can he be deported? For cases like this there should be court fast tracking. Some of them are really cut and dry. You need to punish the offenders quickly or they'll just keep doing it. The longer you let the crime go on, the more money the squatter owes, that they're not going to be paying back.
Perhaps you should make a country wide 'registry' of known offenders so that folks doing a background check of a tenant can quickly have a place to go to in order to validate if they are going to be facing a problem or not.
Call all utility companies and shut off everything next time.
Imagine letting complete strangers stay in your house for money. Absolute insanity. People are crazy.
It’s absolute nonsense how we don’t have laws on the books pertaining to squatters that the homeowner can literally throw them out on their ears grab them by their hair and drag them out of their house. The damn squatters have more rights than the homeowner the people that are paying the taxes it is absolutely absurd.
This would stop me from renting my home out for an airbnb. Why take the risk of this happening? Why take that chance?
That’s insanity! 🤦🏽♀️
"They want better laws for short term rental properties." The only problem there is that they are attempting to use these residences as hotel room rentals, which isn't within the law as it is. No one is going to want to write laws that encourage the housing shortage even more.
2 responses: the Hotel ACT SHOULD apply, and you can get rid of non-payers immediately (short term) and in my recreational area short term rentals do NOT affect long term. ST are much more luxurious and high end; rental demand is on the low end. they do not meet. Prevent my assoc. from renting short, they simply will NOT rent, as they keep their homes for summer use for themselves and relatives. Now, in Omaha that might be different, maybe Oracle week only applies, but there's no simple answer.
@@user-zp7jp1vk2i the hotel act should apply? You forget that the only reason running AirBnBs are profitable is because they are running them as hotels but not actually following any of the regulations on running a hotel. "ST are much more luxurious and high end, rental demand is on the low end. They do not meet." Tell me that you have no idea what you are actually talking about without telling me. I work as an electrician and have experience in other realty based contract jobs. Being "high end" or being "low end" doesn't matter one iota. The vast majority of properties listed on AirBnB are the opposite of luxurious.
Curious. The State of Texas, for example,
the "only requirement at the state level is to register with the Texas Comptroller's Office. This is needed in order to be able to start collecting a state hotel occupancy tax." Other states have similar rules. Some cities have additional rules. Why you think they are not "within the law" is a mystery. Also bear in mind that anything for which no law exists is perforce legal. If a governing body has not forbidden an activity, one may engage in it.
@@davidpawson9047 "Why you think they are not "within the law"is a mystery." Because none of these landlords doing this are taking those steps. It is almost like you haven't read ANY news article concerning AirBnB in the last 5 years. "If a governing body has not..." You don't understand the concept of business industries being regulated, do you? There is a reason why registered hotels get MUCH greater authority over their rights compared to the fly by night operations on Airbnb. A person can stay 6 months at an extended stay hotel, but the hotel still reserves the right to kick out a guest without eviction. Notice how the squatters in the very video you are commenting on require an eviction? Why don't you take a moment and think about that for one second before you show your own ignorance of the reality any more.
@@ShaggyRogers1 The AirBnB hosts ARE regulated, both by local ordinance and AirBnB rules.
Soo heart breaking 😢, people not getting there $10,000 month money in there pockets 🙄.
And they should be...the squatters agreed to pay it.
How will she pay for more plastic surgery if they don't pay the rent?!!!...okay that was mean...i apologize.
Yeah why won't anyone think of the poor squatters while the rest of us pay property tax? 😢
I hope you sell something someday so I can just come and take it without paying.
They're running a business, why shouldn't they get their money? Remember, every time you purchase something, someone is making money off of you. Ever buy a house or a car? After all is said and done, how much interest did the bank make off of you? Depending on the size of the loan, it could be 10s of thousands.
I’m a landlord, traditional rentals. I understand the need for courts to intervene in evictions. It’s your home you want to make sure it’s being done properly.
Unfortunately some states use this to saddle homeowners with the responsibility of becoming homeless shelters. You wouldn’t want to be evicted from your rental unjustly right?
Here in FL for example I can have you out in 14-21 days. And about $3500. Sucks yes but better than 8 months of legal purgatory.
There should be separate laws concerning Airbnb
A couple of years ago I saw this documentary about living in Russia rental property’s where very cheap new condo’s 3 bedroom had everything like in the United States. Anyways they showed this landlord having problems with an un paying tenants They didn’t pay rent for 3 months so the owner called people that would come out and by and remove the tenants out to the street they also move all of there things out to the sidewalk and it’s DONE. The documentary said there’s NO court’s renters protection if they don’t have the money they should be kicked out! This how it used to be in the United States in the 1900 to 1960. That’s when the government got soft. The government always takes the side of the none paying tenants!
But it's her property. She was nice. She was nice for 2 months without receiving a dime. Or was she lady talking about the squatters? I hope she was talking about the squatters and not the owners.
Of course she was referring to the squatters. She was hired by the owner of the property to manage the Air BNB
@@desireesalas5820 Good to know. I thought so. But the way it was sounding and what continued afterwards didn’t go hand in hand.
And my husband wants to rent our house out when we move! Hell nah! This is exactly why!
The lady that did this in a California home a few months ago after staying almost 2 years, was finally kicked out. If you look around YT and the web, you’ll see a lot of comments about that case, claiming that’s what happens in California. This case is in Nebraska, a Republican state. That’s because this type of thing is happening all over the country contrary to the political narratives out there.
Nah. It's Rutherford B. Hayes' fault. Damn Whigs.
As someone who lives next door to a vacation rental, it amuses me that things like this happen. The owners don't care at all about the people who live around their rental but as soon as they suffer negative effects, they want immediate action. Hypocrites.
$10,000 a month is highway robbery. That's what the owners get for being greedy.😂
2500 a week has common place , nation wide
@@lantrick LOL, the average wage a week is like 700 dollars. She will only get scammers for 10K a month for that place.

They're wealthy and they still need the income from airbnb? have fun, that's what greed gets ya.
They need a visit from "Buster."
Lol! That's a bit like what my sister's neighbor did with an old farmhouse she was renting out on her property - except that "Buster" burned the place down. Sadly there was no-one home at the time.
I would NEVER be a rental or short term rental property owner. It isn’t worth it anymore.
How do you let someone move in before deposit and first months is beyond me, background/credit check? If it’s AirBnB you have to pay in advance. This doesn’t make sense.
i am sure she would have spent all the rent on plastic surgery
That is irrelevant. She has worked hard to acquire real estate of this caliber and is therefore entitled to use her wealth in any manner she pleases.
@@michelledelfrate1014 She should never have been allowed to own all of that property in the first place.
I don’t feel bad for the owner. This is what happens when all the real estate inventory is bought up by investors leaving no affordable housing for everyday Americans.

I would definitely rent my home to complete strangers. Especially today.
The greedy rental property hoarders should rent to people who need homes.
They've displaced renters everywhere and should be completely outlawed.
You'd then complain about the cost of the rent.

There are contractors who provide a solution to this problem.
I did see somewhere with the Airbnb scenario, that the owner removed all the furniture and appliances, then the squatters left.
How have squatters gotten more rights than the owners. My husband would end up in jail, he would just heave their stuff on the front lawn and then the squatters.
We are in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦, and in 2022, all squatters rights were abolished.
All this should be unlawful. It’s crazy how hard working people are penalized and crooks are protected. They better get it together, because people are going to start to fight back.
I don’t feel bad for the owners, it’s the risk you they renting it out to strangers for a lot of money.
Their next Airbnb stay should be in prison.
How these people left without a physical beating is mind blowing. how are they supposed to learn this is not ok if they are allowed to do this 🥴🤷🏼♂️🚮
I operated a B&B for 12 years. I began my innkeeping years by charging people when they checked out. I learned quickly this was a mistake. I then ran a VRBO for 14 years - full payment upfront before providing access codes to the house. This lady should never have given them access before payment. If people are staying 30 days, she needs them to sign a lease agreement with deposit and payment upfront
Need to write contracts and make them sign it that their property isn't a place of residence.
I bet you she didn’t go through the app if she didn’t get paid
Airbnb along with all the other short term rental aps, need to be managed (and pay tax) like any other hotel/motel. Problem solved .. units are rented out on 24 hour blocks not weeks or months.
That’s beyond ridiculous
