There is a bunch of reasons. Some cause they’re getting kicked out cause they’re trespassing or it’s a legit renter who’s getting kicked out for some reason and they get their anger out or bored.
Well they don’t care. They’re not held accountable to any damages to the property, or theft of stuff on the property. Since they can falsify the lease, the homeowner can’t sue they for damages. Just the eviction. Hence why the law needed to be changed or made.

Renters have rights. Where I am, if you try to remove someone from your home, even if they're squatting, you will automatically owe them 12 months rent, paid full.
That's not how it works, it won't be that easy, just like the Nanny who was supposed to take care of the children but instead she went own the room, and told everyone that she quit instead of getting fired
They're not just moving from one place to another They're destroying everything and leaving property damages to the owners and think im gonna get-away with this so that tge owners pay for all the damages
@@123RADIOactive I will gladly take any charges the pos might try and press on me, If their squatting in a house I doubt they would have trial money for a lawyer.
When squatters cause damage like this Everything they own should be sold and if there's still money owed, they do hard labor in prison until it's paid off
So he is welcomed in and just becomes a pest? Hunter? Yeah... I dont want you ending up in a bag because not everyone is a human being out here. Please don't do this full-time without a few more folks or at least an easy way to get backup and for someone to track you.
It's stories like this that should make the entire neighborhood gather together, no need for cameras, and approach the squatter in a convincing manner to move on
I don’t understand how American law takes away rights from the owners who purchased the home and have documentation to verify it and give it to people who illegally occupy the property.
The legislation needs to revise these laws to stop supporting the squatters more than the homeowners. Homeowners shouldn’t have to file for an eviction that can take 2 years to do on people who just move their stuff in, change the locks, and make the homeowners pay for everything. They don’t have the papers to the home, the homeowners do so support them instead of the criminals.
What we see on the news is the big picture. It’s just a few cases. Some these “squatters” legitimately live there but landlord wants to kick them out for what ever reason. It protects a lot of innocent people more than it does trespassers.
It is clear that these people do not own the home. If they did, they wouldn’t do this to it. They wouldn’t destroy it like that. They clearly do not own the home. If they did, they would know how much money it takes to repair it and they would not do that to their own home ….or maybe they would.😳
Home owners in places with "30-day squatter rights" laws, please remember this when you go to vote. Don't vote for politicians or political parties who make laws that give your properties away to others for free. It hurts you, it hurts your communities and it hurts the rule of law.
This is horrible ! Squatters should be taken out of these homes and Jailed! " The Laws Need to Change reguarding Squatters!" They have No Rights to occupy some one else home!
Pay the hunter well then charge the state for their removal sue the damn state law makers who only protect the criminals. And why do we allow the bad policy makers to remain in that position to do more harm. We put them in power but nobody seems to want to remove them from that power seat. Why?

IGNORE THE LAW! The can’t and WON’T help you. I suffered 8 months with a squatter. Paid 3k to a lawyer to evict. Took MONTHS! Then the state of Az FORCED me to let her back in to get her stuff. YEP! She moved right back in. So I sold it to an investor and took a 70k loss. Squatter still there after closing. I heard from a neighbor, that the squatter was ‘removed’ by the new owner with cuffs and a bag over her head. Her stuff was trashed out in the middle of the night. This squatter has never been seen or heard from again. And a new tenant moved in the very next day. People ! SQUATTERS HAVE NO RIGHTS! Just because a State passes an UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAW, does NOT mean you have to acknowledge that law. WE must hold government accountable and IGNORE THEM AND QUIETLY TAKE CARE OF YOUR PROBLEM WITHOUT THEM. This is the world we live in now. If we continue to allow our CORRUPT GOVERNMENT to impose UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAWS, we don’t have a COUNTRY.
allowing this ...When she came back to get her stuff....lol you should of put her stuff on porch in protective bags and changed your locks and ALWAYS have a fake lease with your name on it to show police...Gotta be smarter than the squatter , the police would of enforced YOUR * squatters right * over your private property rights ...
As I was watching this story on my tv, I was thinking about this RUclips video where a woman who was sleeping on this family’s couch in their house, was saying that she was copping the house, and as I was watching it, I was thinking she is a squatter!
I really don’t get the whole squatter rights thing. Aren’t the homes private property? If that’s the case isn’t that trespassing and theft.

Squating rights was created because without laws to protect a renter, a landlord can do anything to their tendant.
