Squatter's Rights in California

- Who Is Considered a Squatter in California?
A squatter is someone who uses or occupies someone else's property without permission or knowledge of the property owner. They have no lease, no legal agreement, and they are not paying any rent; they are just living free on someone else's property or under someone's desk. This property can be land, a home, a commercial building, or any type of real estate.
Now...Can a squatter gain ownership of a property simply by squatting simply by occupying somebody’s property?
Yes, it is very rare but in California. A squatter can claim rights to a property after living on or caring for the property for 5 continuous years. This is called adverse possession. But before you all go out and start searching for abandoned homes to go occupy there are some rules to follow:
- The Squatter must occupy the property for 5 years
- They must possess the property by caring for it and maintaining it. Any respectable squatter should be at least mowing the lawn right?
- The squatter must be paying the property taxes for the last 5 years. Nothing is free my friend, not even squatters' rights!
- The squatter's possession of the property must be “Open & notorious” which means that the squatter is not attempting to hide their occupation of the property. It must be obvious to anyone that they are squatting there (including any property owner who makes a reasonable effort to investigate).
- Exclusive possession, They cannot share possession or occupation with strangers, other tenants, other squatters, or even with the owner.
Has this happened before? Yes. Some Squatters have been able to take people's property through adverse possession.
Is it common? No, it is very rare. Squatters rarely can meet all the criteria and their use of the property is typically short-lived if the property owner is periodically visiting the property, or if neighbors report suspicious activity.
These simple steps can protect your property from potential squatters:
- Visit or inspect your vacant properties
- Properly secure your property with gates, locks, doors and windows locks. Makes sense if you don’t want people coming into your property don’t leave the doors and windows open.
- Use a property management company to rent it out and periodically inspect your property.
- Put up “No Trespassing” signs, especially if the property is currently vacant or unoccupied
And if you have a squatter in your property right now and you need to get rid of them, what should you do?
Call the police in some instances people will leave if or when the police come out to the property. If the squatter claims that they have a right to be in the property the police will not remove them from the property. So if they will not leave the property then...
You can offer them money to move. This can be the cheaper and faster way to get possession of the property back.
If your efforts are unsuccessful in getting the squatters out you will need to post a three-day notice and begin the eviction process similar to a non-paying tenant. An eviction, also known as an unlawful detainer will be a civil case held before a judge and if you get the judgment in your favor the court will order that the possession of your property be restored back to you. The whole process can take between 45-60 days before you get a sheriff lockout.
So keep those properties locked and loaded with tenants. Vacant or abandoned properties are a huge liability. So if you need help, call us or visit our website at www.truedoorpm... or find someone that is local to wherever your property is.

Like with most things, it's who you know. An inlaw of a Bro had this problem. The squatters decided to move out when a dozen or so of us rode down the driveway alongside their cars, pulled into the yard, parked our Harleys, unlocked the back door, carried our beer into the house and made ourselves comfortable.
🤣 amazing
That's the only way.
Oh my God that’s hilarious. I’ll bet that scared the ever living shit out of them.
I would of been dragging at least one behind my Harley down the road
Did you record it? Sounds like golden footage. 😂😂😂
I was able to get renters out, who stayed beyond our contract, I just turned off the water. They could not get gas or electric because I would not relinquish my interest in the property. They figured out after about a week that, though a single woman, I wasn’t about to give up or give in.
Hi Diane, Isn't that illegal in California?
@@jojoperez6454 what a stupid question. Illegal doesn't mean unlawful. I'd do whatever it took to irradiated rats. An attempted squat on my property would not end well for them.
Good for you 👍
@@jojoperez6454 legal or illegal I seriously doubt the squatters will take the landlord to court imho
The police told us we could not turn off power or water.
I helped a friend get rid of two squatters in his small rental house he was trying to sell. they were making a filthy mess inside even though he cut off the power and water.we bought a block of sulfur put some in a coffee can and lit it on fire then we put in in the airduct of the house at night while they slept the fumes were so strong it drove them out in 20 minutes but the smell lasted a week
Lol😂
It's ridiculous the squatters have more rights than the landlord. Our justice system needs to change the rules asap to protect the owner.
They don't have more rights. And regular tenants who don't pay rent can be evicted again. Every court has a Self Help Resource Center that will guide both landlords and tenants.
They dont have more rights......landlord needs to take them to court and sue them.
All these people in the justice system got paid so much money and they still leave ridiculous law like this around. Let these squatters squat at law makers house. Maybe there will be a change after
A shotgun can easily resolve that issue.
Ah it warms my heart that someone who illegally stays on private property is protected by law. Way to go CA 🤨
I love living in California. However, the insane rights given to squatters is ridiculous. People are ruined by tenants that don't want to leave their rental property.
Rental property? Ok let's see. I'll be back...🤨
Squatters or settlers or colonizers its all the same.
real estate is illegal and has been since stolen lands it was created to steal the lands from my people.
@@CeAcatl_Topiltzin_Quetzalcoatl can they at least build their own homes and actually “settle” then? I hear New Mexico is wonderful
Rental has a contract. Squatters take over abandoned properties
Your rights don’t mean shit from the bottom of the ocean. Squatters should keep that in mind. A lot of people aren’t gonna go to the cops to deal with you.
Back in the day my dad and his partner had rented out a house. they learned shortly after that the girls were whores and tricking out of the house. they gave the girls a shotgun eviction and the local gang came by in a couple cars to grab the girls & their possessions.
Somebody who is like minded sir I couldn't agree more.
Well said...for most of the video I was thinking that alot of land or property owners upon encountering squatters would not just be content wagging their finger and saying "we'll see about that buddy I'm gonna sue you" no... No no what's mine is mine, what's yours is yours. "Just digging a hole, it's my land after all I can dig a hole"
😂😂 i was thinking exactly the same, but more just buried in a national forest
@@holyfuknmolymyshitstinks3415 the ocean is the smart choice
What I told my friends and neighbors:
First: call police for a report and to get illegal occupants names.
2nd: call probation and parol a copy of the police report with the names of the illegal occupants.
3rd: file a complaint with parole/probation against the illegal occupants who are probably on probation and or parole. If they get a probation or parol violation it can be almost instantaneous. “Breaking/entering”, “vandalism”, t petty theft….
Our squatter took a job on our ranch helping with chores in exchange for a place to part her trailer. She came and after plugging in her trailer she 'changed her mind and didn't want the job. Then she wouldn't leave. Stayed 5 weeks before leaving with NO help from the police to get her off the property
The police told us because we allowed her to come onto the property she was now Our tenant ...insanity in California laws!!!
@@spice1960 that is true… as far as it goes… another term to use is: “gratuitous guest”. Those non paying guests can be instructed to leave upon request! Ask the police to have her produce a title to the trailer..! If the “guest” cannot show title to the trailer you could claim it as yours. And, still instruct the guests to be removed. 🤔 if you”admit” that the squatter has been there for a “long time”
Like more than 14 days… that might require some paperwork. If they cannot prove their stay was longer…(?), then they are guests. Get them out fast… remove the trailer….
Look up the legal terms for guest. Squatters won’t hesitate to lie…. So, I guess that homeowners should play with the same “rules”. 🤔
What the hell does parole have to do with this. They aren't rental cops
@@JackBondo I have personally had to get illegal occupants out of homes that they did not legally occupy. So far, those occupants were on parole or probation. After the police identify those occupants,
I called the parole/probation office. The parole/probation came over verified the identity and then arrested the illegal occupants for criminal trespassing, breaking/entering, and parole/probation violations on the spot. Parole/probation can authorize the responding officers to detain or arrest for violations of their release. So…. It has worked so far.
A colleague of mine said his single male friend asked a family to move out and they tried to 'squat' in his house. He simply moved in with them and walked around naked, hung out on the sofa. They called law enforcement on him. When officers heard the story they told the family it was his house and he could do what he wanted. The family moved out the next day. No vandalism to the house.
@Lovesongs M. not made up. Are you a squatter? Afraid others will catch on to this idea I guess.
@lovesongsm.3757 squatter...
Nice
I found out how easy "I live here" can be backed up. My caretaker allowed his granddaughter to receive mail at the caretaker house. When he suddenly took ill, I was lucky to have him hand me the house keys. I changed all the gate locks and house key and put all the new keys on his keyring. When the granddaughter couldn't get in she called the cops and described her grandpa's keyring and asked the cop to compare the keys to hers. I had the cop follow me into the house and we "found" the keys on the hook as the granddaughter had described. The keys didn't match.
My father-in-law moved to Arizona, so he rented his house to a family in Los Angeles to pay the note at his new home. He didn’t think about the fact that he needed to protect himself by accumulating a large money cushion. He also didn’t list major appliances, crystal chandelier and other major possessions in the rental property as specifically belonging to him. The renters paid for 3 months and then stopped…. At that point, as far as I’m concerned, they became squatters. Apparently these pos “people” knew the laws and it took several months to get the Sheriff’s order to vacate. Those people trashed the house, the guest house, broke the toilets and took everything out of the house that belonged to my father-in-law. They even took the chandelier. The Sheriff deputy could not stop these sh💩t stains because there was no list of what couldn’t be removed.
My father-in-law being extremely naive, didn’t do his homework and paid the price. He lost his house because he could not sustain two house notes for that long and he didn’t have the funds to repair all of the extensive damage in order to sell it at cost.
I have a childhood friend that encountered slightly different situation when her mother died and she took possession of the house. My friend’s intent was to sell it. BUT…..Her mother let someone live at the house in Los Angeles for a few months to let the woman recover financially and eventually move. The woman didn’t pay rent, but she also didn’t want to move. My friend was more fortunate, as she is an attorney. But living in Pennsylvania, the process of ejecting the squatter in Los Angeles was a year long process. Fortunately, the house was already paid off. My friend was finally able to sell the house. All’s well that ends well, I guess.
I bet those renters were "Raiders fans"
How about selling the house when moving? That way he's not hording property and subject to non-paying tenants... Also a renter does not become a squatter even if not paying for there is a signed lease. To be a squatter there has to be no payment, paperwork, and the squatter must upkeep the land.
People in the comments seemed confused. This only applies to Abandoned properties. Not owned properties. Once a renter signs a contract they agree it’s not theirs. A landlord serving an eviction is definitely paying the property taxes. If a property is abandoned and you pay the taxes and care for it, it’s yours. An old law for settlers.
This law also made properties abandoned by banks in 2008 the legal property of “squatters” who moved in, payed taxes, revived mail, and cared for it
Nope squatter laws still apply to owned property.
Nope squatter laws still apply to owned property.
@@Wonderingcrowbird Yep and this is why you must never keep your deed, cash or any other thing of value inside your home. Store it elsewhere.
Sickening squatters have rights at all.
I can understand why criminals like squatters should have any rights at all
Yes it does not make sense.
The government protects the bad more than the good. You work hard and you have to pay the price for being honest and good hearted person.
@@ancu2682 We gotta send squatters to law makers home. That's the only way they will understand and respond
it's called basic protocol it's like the plan that God gives you before he set you out into the world follow it correctly and everything works out correctly deviate and...
@@ancu2682 because you are living in stolen property if you are not black you do not belong there wherever it is in America you are basically squatting on stolen property at a very high rate you guys are all all day suckers you are paying money for landing a home that is free it is not free for foreigners it is been stolen from the Aboriginal indigenous whether it was up 500 years ago or 5 minutes ago it is still there then so you are buying stolen property what's going to be taken away from you at any particular time they can raise your rent they can make create balloon payments and a myriad of other things I would assume that is why all these strings and weird things happen to people anything you do in America basically is stolen so you really have no standing initially still in time stolen land stolen property you name it stolen history just a heads up and there is nothing you can do when the people that actually own that land come to get it you are essentially a squatter also for all points and purposes not meaning to be anal retainer but just like they told the American Indians and the Australians and the Indians in India we are going to come and take your property and everything you have they are going to be criminals and deviance that you will have to deal with it didn't really help but the warning was appreciated even though it was not official they clearly meant it but if you don't believe me look around him check out your neighbors if they are not Aboriginal indigenous they are squatters working hard paying hard being legal and legit and like the Aboriginal indigenous they're going to lose their isht it's a part of the European plan keep one turned against the other and then you guys don't pay pay attention to who's really doing things
Squatters next door to me finally died. Tweeker drug addicts. I been cleaning up the property and boarded it up. It's owned by the county. It's a fire Hazzard and health Hazzard. I'm on 1 year taking care of the property now. I love California but it's turning into a real shit hole.
Well, thanks a lot for teaching people how to get away with squatting!!
🙉🤣
yeah buddy where do you live I feel like taking a squat 😆 calendar hard now you have to be nice to squatters just a few days a few weeks a few months something like that no seriously though what's the address I'll be right over I'm packing my things as we speak LOL don't keep me waiting now
We have a nice place we wanted to rent but have had a very bad experience with Californias terrible property owner rights
Seriously ima setup a squatting team
The courts are backed up now. It’s a criminal matter that gets a civil matter resolve. Trespassing is trespassing it’s not squatting. Here’s an idea don’t buy them out schedule the house to be termite tented. Pay extra to have the tent stay up a week or more.
Right there
And tell the squatter that their possessions will be poisoned by the gas, so they have to take their shit out and leave…..
Sounds like a plan. If they don't get out tent it at night and start the bug and rat killing cyanide fumes. That's the way they used to execute people in California. 😄
A friend of mine tried this and hes right they have to evict you except james got woke up to the smell of propane because the owner of the house sat a propane tank open under the floors crawl space from outside .he didnt die but said it was a vicious head ache and was scared to keep stayin there threw the eviction .
dang, sounds wild thanks for watching
I love your friend. EDIT: I reread and take it back! It's NOT your friend I love, it's the OWNER of the property that gassed your friend, whom I love.
So why would he stay one more minute?
@@terribongers2465 because he was trying to exercise his squatters rights
Well my landlord did alot of illegal things to me while i was paying rent. I had to call the Police so many times I can't even keep count now.😴🚓🚔👮♂️👮♀️📞📲📱🤳📶🔋
Illegal lockout. Changing the locks while I was paying rent. Broke into my room and through out my furnished room I was paying rent for. And now she is trying to break into my room yes we are roomates and she is a real scum crappy person I am looking for another place.
I have not paid rent in 3months and I won a restraining order and she did not like that riding the wave until I find another place to re locate also her Eviction/Unlawful Detainer she did not pursue it and tried to have someone best me up.
Yeah I am going to ride this until I can't anymore.
#TennantRights
Why don't you squat or be a squatter at Pelosi's residence in California? She has a big enough Mansion for plenty of squatters!!!👍👍
Pelosi’s husband is housebound now. No squatters allowed.
And vineyards in Sonoma Napa house
Hard to squat in an inhabited building and there is no chance of getting adverse possession because Pelosi pays her property tax.
Why do they have rights? Is that a sanctuary thing?
No, sanctuary laws are about illegals from other countries, mostly Mexico and several Central American countries.
They have to pay the taxes I believe. And taking care of it.
It’s very rare because Neighbors know what’s going on and call the owner
Homesteading is still legal ., it’s different then squatters.
Took us 8 months to get a squatter out of a house we were trying to sell and it involved a lawyer....
"Offer them money to move.."
You get 55 cents. From my .45
So that’s a cash for keys option but what would stop them from not going back inside the house and then let the eviction process happen.
@@vbcurley8205 They wouldn't have a brain to give them that option...
@@jobama3588 some people just really know the system and are true low lives. Disgusting how people who are stealing can just get away with it.
I just finished paying someone to leave a rental house I own She was there initially as a temporary guest of a paying tenant but she had no lease and paid no rent She was fighting with the paying tenants and refused to leave - only by paying her did she leave - It was faster than doing a formal eviction Still took me 3 weeks and a lot of grief (threats broken windows etc)
Why would you pay that just eggs them on did you try skunk piss or smoke bomb or changing the locks or dragging her out by her hair or hire a bouncer and then bounce her just like a bar tell the cops she threatened to kill you turn of power water tent the house for termites wtf
This is a real problem in Cali I have this problem now!!!!!
Lmao, let a squatter come on my property and see what happens.
You’d probably be crying on here lol
End of squatter.
I grew up right here i am 66 years old and I’m outta here give it to the squatters Can’t rely on my taxes to help them out I’m out of here going to Tennessee
Offer them money to move? MORE LIKE OFFER THEM A BUCK SHOT TO LEAVE!
If you have squatters, can you break in and squat in your own house?
Sounds like a sensible plan! Claim your squatters rights and do very obnoxious things like poohing in a bucket and fake coughing all over and eating things to make you fart like crazy. Concentrated Apple juice with whip-cream is a good concoction to drink for that.
Then play so much awful music and never leave.
Though the person squatting may harm or destroy property themselves.
We never even got close to court..the squatter called the cops on me for towing his car out of the yard with a chain and my truck. He came outside as I was ba king up to get his other car,he took a swing at me as the sheriff was coming down the road and I beat his ass in self defense of course. The sheriff told me to go sit in my truck as he proceeded to help the squatter remove his belongings from the property. There are many ways to get them out...without costing you money.
#FJB and everyone who voted for him!!
I am glad you got possession of your property.
This is why CA is so screwed up. Recall Newsom. Elect Elder.
Thanks for watching!
Squatter problems all over some states worse than California.
We tried....but with a totally open to fraud voting system, who knows why he's still there. It could be fraud it could be too many foreigners and welfare families.
We tried. I voted for Elder. Me and my family don’t know what happened. We even signed the recall paperwork. I think he’s fraudulently still in office.
@@flowerpink33 You're not the brightest bulb...obviously.
Not my property I guarantee that the squatters would leave soon no question about it. They had a professional squatters in my neighborhood but the cops got them out within two hours the law does protect the property owner in California, I saw this with my own eyes..
We had a person come to our ranch with their 5th wheel to do farm labor in exchange for rv hookup. They decided in the 1st hour they didn't want the job but refused to leave. Took us over 5 weeks to get her off property. Sheriff's dept. Was no help.
In CA, conservative county, cops/sheriffs do nothing but harass law-abiding ppl. Guy about 2miles away told me he got 3 houses for family members for free by squatting. I need rent or sell my place & afraid to leave until sold.
I had someone ask to rent a room. When I discovered she was a drug addict, i immediately said you need to move. She agreed and I immediately offered to pay 3 months storage at a facility of her choice IF she left by end of month. Yeah it was a bit pricey BUT I MADE SURE TO GET EVERYTHING OUT & into that storage unit in HER NAME (even when she stopped packing), I continued to.
Thank God - Covid hit less than a month later and the shut down began and telling people they didn’t have to pay rent and forcing property owners to just “deal with it.” I would have been so screwed had I not gotten her out when I did!
5 years is a LONG time. I would think an owner would notice his/her property taxes being paid by someone else. Additionally, I’m not paying someone to leave property they are in illegally. No, should that ever happen, it’s a walk out or get carried out situation.
When a person who owns a home dies without an heir or will their home just sits there deteriorating until the state auctions it off for 5 years back taxes. It is much better for the community if someone moves in when the house is still in liveable condition and pays the taxes.
Squatters do not need to occupy the home for 5 years. I just watched a show where the lady pretended to be a care giver. The owner moved to a retirement home and the so called care giver stayed in the home and became a squatter. The son of the homeowner had to spend thousands of dollars to get the lady removed. Squatters are considered tenants even if they don't have a lease.
Unacceptable!!! FIX THE LAW!,,! !!!!!!!!+
Abandoned properties. Not owned properties. Once a renter signs a contract they agree it’s not theirs. If a property is abandoned and you pay the taxes and care for it, it’s yours. An old law for settlers
Pay your taxes and you don't need to worry about adverse possession. This law can actually help the community. An abandoned property can become a drugs house with transients passing through and no tax money being paid. On the other hand a family could move in to the house, maintain it, pay the taxes and eventually get ownership.
In Pennsylvania please make sure you have a good property manager and good attorney. It. Still takes time. Paying them to leave was one thing we would not do. They had plenty of time to get out. By the way to avoid seeing property manager they kept saying they both had covid 5 times and live to talk about it.
We hired a property manager whom also taught property management classes at the local college 😳 our renters damaged the property and stole our washer and dryer.
There's a Squatter in Sacramento @ the governor's mansion!!!!!
Should be fumigated with that squatter in it.
LOL
Good luck in getting him out we had a chance but the 🐑 kept him there is
Got that right he's no good people wise up
sick burn
Adverse possession is far more common in instances where property lines are ambiguous.
"...or UNDER somebody's DESK."🤣👏
Can a squaters occupation of a residence be considered a home invasion?
They took over my home when I was out of town so badly, I was forced to move. The police didn’t remove them. My house was trashed, they kept bringing more people in. There was so much damage done there was no way I could repair or live in it.
I'm allowed to carry a gun on any property I own, I don't give a damn about squatters rights.
If you wanna get rid of squatters there’s a simple solution. Go up to the San Gabriel mountains trap a few rattlesnakes and dump them in front of the squatters and watch them run the hell out of the house. Then you change the locks on the doors and bolt the windows shut.
Squatters are people who take dumps by squats
I don't understand why people think this is a bad thing if you do it to a abandoned house where no one's paying the taxes on it and not maintaining it and it's not up for sale I don't see what the big deal is if you're going to take care of the property and pay the taxes on it no one should care you legally stoled the house
Who said no one is paying the taxes? Also, how can you think this is a good thing? People shouldn't get to simply steal a house just because the owner isn't using it at the time.
Apparently you didn't read my comment
Yes if it’s not being taken care of and it’s abandoned it should be ok have at it
Offer them money to leave? Wrong - don’t think so.
How about go for a joyride in the country instead?
“Howdy, neighbor - great day for a ride. So, you wanna go?”
“No.”
“No ? - what do you mean ‘No’?”
“I don’t wanna go.”
“Go where?”
“- for a ride.”
“A RIDE?!! GREAT IDEA!!”
Wham! And off we go to the country to enjoy a long afternoon of “sightseeing.” Good times!
How generous for them to have donated every single item to charity the very same day as well! Everyone wins.
It’s 20 years ! I learned about it when my stepdaughter was in law school .
I think if a property is left vacant for 3 consecutive years, it should be free to whoever wants to fix up and live there. Seriously. I see so many vacant houses going to rot while people are left homeless. Something wrong with this.
My friend lived in a house next door to a place like that. Completely unwanted due to divorce. And it was such a beautiful place, nice corner yard. I was in love with the place, it was in Oregon. Worth $150k and I guess the wife was saying she wanted $500k and not a dime less for herself!
So the husband cut the mailbox down so no more mail piling up and moved out to the coast.
And there this beautiful little 3 bedroom sits… literally rotting!
Your sense of entitlement is outrageous
Something wrong with your idea of a solution.
In my house a squatter wont last 5 seconds.
And you can last 5 decades in jail after you evict them.
@@ThePeterDislikeShow wrong
If you're a landlord in ca, and you're having a squatters problem. Message me. We can work together
Must place a sign on the property that reads, No Entry Without Owners Expressed Permission. Next, take a picture of that sign on the property and record it at the county recorders office
Recall Newsom
Landlords could use some help in CA
They tried that. He won again. Please stay updated.
Landlords are able to evict again. Squatters aren't entitled to notice to vacate. And the doctrine of adverse possession predates Newsom by hundreds if years.
This should be renamed how to get a baseball bat to the back of the head 😂 and then dumped in the aqua duct 🤣
i would never pay a penny to a thief (squatter). They are encouraged and protected to ignore any laws - so I'm sure I would get the same protections - equal under the law, right? Wait until they're gone - go in with a crew - remove everything and take it to the dump - and move in and start repainting and doing the floor, etc. Just claim to authorities you've been there all along - here's proof of ownership - sue me.
How does a squatter prove they have occupied the property for 5 years
Lawyers alone will be way too expensive for squatter to hire. Goodluck squatters.
I know someone who stayed at an extended stay hotel, rent-free, 18 months using a loophole with the COVID emergency.
People often forget that Lawyer's are optional. Every American has right to represent themselves in the Court of Law.
@@chrisnorris3641Maybe the squatter should have used his "law degree" for better use then in that case.
@@ThePeterDislikeShow you don't need alaw degree, just basic understanding of the law.
@@chrisnorris3641 OK good luck facing the judge then. Even a lawyer would likely hire a lawyer for eviction.
Serious question.
If your home has firearms in it and a squatter breaks in, Wont the police arrest them for illegal possession of your now stolen firearms ?
Seems to be nothing a shotgun and .45 can't take care of.
666 - They moved in 6 Mar 2021. Shooting was 6 Feb 2022. Move out 6 Jul 2022. 488 DAYS OF PAIN. Everything we did helped. Sheriff reports on line. Code enforcement Reports. Business License Agency reports. County Supervisor request for assistance. In the end it was the simple call to MORTGAGE LENDER. They did the FORECLOSURE. The owners either could not help or did not want to help. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF THE COMMUNITY WORKING TOGETHER TO RIGHT A HUGE WRONG. Thank you to everyone who participated with work, prayers and encouragement. IT ALL HELPED.
This happened to us in June 2008 we were in the process of buying a home in the city of Norwalk California. My realtor called me and said we have a problem we have a squatter in the house and Wells Fargo bank call the police to get him out he said he had right on so the bank offers $1,000, $5,000 it when all the way to $25,000. The Asian guy wanted $50,000 dollars that’s how he made a living he was known to do this from 2006 to Wells Fargo bank, Bank of America and few other banks. We lost interest in the home November 2008 and move to another property to buy
California really does cater to criminals.
Asians, blacks, Latinos, whites - squatters come in shapes and sizes. A friend paid $25K to get a white guy squatting in his property in Grover Beach (California, of course) out.
I genuinely love California. Some of the laws - not so much.
@@terryaguirre8271 You are very funny lady It was not conveniently that I call him an Asian man because that's what he was if he would have been a Black man I would've said a Black man if he would've been in Hispanic or Latino I would have said that too and if he would have been a White man I would also would've said that too.

@@juancarloscasanas4221 Wow, bet you have some interesting stories to tell about your travels.😊
Yeah but if they do leave because you paid them... they might tell their friends "hey this guy is paying us to leave" which might even be more expensive
2 pitbulls..... will never have squatters
Newsom is a waste of life!
So was orange man
No, Kimberly G is a life full of waste. 🤣🤪
Pit bulls must occupy the property also. These dogs must be the property owners dogs & trained to go after unwanted & unwarranted vermin.
What about a county property, considered Nomansland as it was supposed to be a road from one street to the other but was never ever done.
My wife and I own our home through adverse position, we met all requirements, went to court and a judge gave us ownership, we did have to prove the requirements, paid the property taxes, maintained the home. Neighbors were happy to have us in the home due to the fact that we were improving the curb appeal. Also the squatters must satisfy any liens.
Well people go missing all the time
You sir have a point. These people are homeless right? Pretty sure no one would come looking for them if they were accidentally beheaded
Can a landlord move into his property or on it if a squatter is inside?
Who came up with squatter's rights?
Can’t wait to leave California
Bye 👋 👋
Bye also. Don't let the door hit you were the good lord Split you
Me to, that being said I'm a contractor and making a fuck ton of money now because California if you know you know I'm almost 60 and I can't leave till I'm 62 and have at least an income coming and I got a lot of equity in the property for now LOL. Having said all that stupid shit I had to do exact same thing he's talking about and pay somebody to go away when I was renting out my house, cost me 800 bucks and I even helped her move her shit out with my big trailer to a storage took about six hours she didn't have much it was well worth it because a month later I had somebody making my house payment renting it out but now I'm back in the house hopefully in a couple years I can sell it and take at least enough away to tide me over somewhere else all miss the weather I'm in Modesto
My cousin did this. The owners died and left the home to a son who lived in Europe. The son couldn't be bothered with it. Cousin moved in at age 18 and just kept living there and paying taxes. That was 20 years ago. Today she owns it.
I am currently squatting in San Francisco. It’s awesome! Idk why anyone would pay rent. I’ve been “squat hopping” for 8 years now 😂
The last owner was harassing me so I sued him! 😂 He turned off the water and hit me with a rock. I pressed charges for assault! lol I love California! I moved here from Texas 10 years ago and I’ll never go back! God bless California!
@@KevonialJemonathoy Are you still occupying the same property?
@@ShiftysRevengeNo I had to leave but not before taking some copper 😂 I found an af on Craigslist for a roommate. I paid 1st and last month rent. My plan is to get what I can from my roommate (he’s a woke caring liberal lol) then I will change the lock on my door and stop paying rent. This guy doesn’t stand a chance! Haha wish me luck yall !
“Police, I have a right to be on the property.”
Given how many abandoned properties the Chinese have taken over in SF, I see no issue. I say go for it.
Take care of the property and don’t raise issues, but generally speaking: take over those abandoned homes but take care of them and pay your taxes
At least he's not squatting in the nude
Now what if your able to come into the house and the person is in there with no trespassing signs and all that.. and if I have a firearm am I allowed to use that? Then call the popo?
Upon a successful claim of adverse possession, what is the tax basis of the property once it is considered property of the squatter? How does the title get transferred to the squatter? Once the title is legally in the squatter's name, what is the tax basis upon which they owe property taxes? If the squatter decides to take out a loan using their new property as collateral, what value would be used for this collateral? If the squatter decides to sell the property to a new owner, what would their tax basis be for any capital gain tax calculation?
Scuater's in the white house right now. 😆
Look closely...they use a fake whitehouse for the press conferences.
I thought he moved to floridumb to mar-a-criminal? After he robbed the white House blind of course.
Boom nailed it.
And you cant spell either
Even after editing your comment you still got it wrong lololololol Just another example of the limited mental capabilities of those who share & believe that ridiculous fiction! Keep lapping it up bro ⁽(◍˃̵͈̑ᴗ˂̵͈̑)ʱªʱª
We had neighbors move the boundary fence to build around their storage shed. They were given permission to put their storage sheds on the property BUT were not given permission to move the boundary fence. Can this cause issues?
Yes. After a few years that property becomes theirs.
I have solutions. No need for the law man lol
Yup me to and it’ll be fun!
HA!
@TWO IN THE PINK ONE IN THE STINK HA!
N LA County Sheriffs put you in jail....
Its topsy turvey here
What if a small home is furnished and rented for only 3-6 months to professionals that are referred by an agency?
That sounds like an Air B&B thing.
You can get paid to squat by a realtor. It would be so fun.
Try squatting on government property. You’ll be there long enough for the cops to show up and arrest you.
offering money for Squatter to move is what they are counting on and just move to another house and do something that will become their occupation work scamming, extorsion, etc.
Move in with them and charge them rent
Thank you so very much for information I can really use!!!!
You are so welcome!
What happens if the owner of the house has not been in The home for 16 years. I lived in this house for 3 and a half years and there is still no owner. I want to go back to the house. Should I?
So my friend had somebody try that with his vacation rental when they wouldn't be reasonable and he said great and he moved his stuff in and even though they were over their objection the screaming started setting up house and taking a bedroom and playing Israeli radio really loud they left very quickly
Ok so a friend actually more of an acquaintance I know lives in a house that he lived in with his Mother and her boyfriend for years. His mom passed and he stayed there with his mom’s boyfriend and took care of him then he passed. The house belongs to the boyfriends family. He’s lived there for over 20 years and been paying the taxes for over 15. Just waiting for someone to come claim the property. Are you saying he has rights to that house? It was an interesting conversation I had with him he said family members didn’t want to bother with it because it was falling apart and he did all the necessary repairs. I think he still lives there to this day. Not sure though
I'd say he has a shot, it's a legal battle but this sounds like he could have a legit claim to the property.
public disclaimer I am not a lawyer
Do that I me and if the law isn't on my side, I'll take you to meet your maker.
Exactly how it should be handled fuck callin the law
I’m on a squatters marathon and looking into all videos and comments about the subject. What I’ve learned is, don’t call the cops and Handle it yourself. Why? Because if you’re in a state that doesn’t have common sense laws and seem to give more rights to the squatter/freeloader, cops won’t do a damn thing.
You also have a 2nd amendment right. Squatters are simply trespassers and should dealt with as an intruder. And make sure you’re going to actually pull the trigger if need be. Zero tolerance for squatters.
Don’t call the police because they won’t help you. Done and done.
It's not that thae police won't help you, they can't. Squatters often have fake rent receipts and the cops are scared to death of being sued if they throw out actual legal renters.
No, you’ll just be hauled to prison for shooting the intruder. You’re damned either way.
I am à squatter but we sign a lease agreement but actually the other tenant is giving me hard time, don’t respect my privacy, tell me every day « this is not your house » , even tho we spilts the bills and rent apartment cuz we got in the house together the same day but she did apply first so I couldn’t add my name no more…
What if the owner is dead?
I’ve been paying utilities
As well as the mortgage
(taken out on this house by someone else)
For three years now.
I live here alone.
Make sure to pay the property tax, including any back taxes, or the state will auction it once the back tax is 5 years past due. Once you have paid the property tax on time for 5 years you can file something with the court to get ownership of the property.
"Pay" someone to get the faulk out of your house? Who thought up that solution?
That’s hideous.... this would be the last property management company anyone would use, what’s next ? Paying them to stay on your property?
I squatted in Oklahoma when I lived there it was kinda fun lmao 🤣 not gon lie.. and the people weren’t that pissed either.l I mean we didn’t mess up the place like most people do that’s just wrong… it was a situation we’re I was homeless stayin wit people and noticed a house that was vacant.. they said it had been that way for years… so I just cut the power on in my name and the water in somebody else’s we were there six months before an owner showed up.. yeah they was like wat the f is goin on here.. we explained he understood then said alright get the f out we did… immediately… but thanked us for not messing up the place … u know he left to shambles for years until a neighbor snitched… I get it’s not fair. The the owner,, but seriously if your home is a vacant eye sore like the one I squatted in,,, fuck the owner.. I’m not sleep in a box when there’s a perfectly good dilapidated roof…. No in hindsight.. I got help , got cleaned up got me job, and my family back, and those nightmares are in the past never to go back down that road again…

Good lord he's got some big hands 🤭
Misleading - rarely has it ever happened is the bottom line.
Bird shot
There are no squatter rights in California. You can't simply take over a vacant property. Now if you stay legally in a place for over 14 days you aquire legal standing and you need to be evicted.
Fill me in on how to become a squatter & I’ll pass it on! Forget that mortgage & the utilities so let’s save our money
There is also Adverse Possession
Sdpd won't do anything about someone who will not leave....
call the police first, if they will not remove them then you will have to start an eviction.
