March 2024 Florida state passed a law for squatters to immediately be arrested and removed from the property. I'm sure the other states will follow Florida in stopping this injustice to the rightful owners. State lawmakers said hooey to squatters rights, Florida is standing with the home/business OWNERS.
If you want to live for free and pay no bills, move to the forest and set up camp. Trying to live in a building that you don’t own or pay rent in is beyond insane.
If that was enforcable there would be no homelessness. In reality-officials are so worried about being pc that they do nothing while the entitled squatters continue to live on while taxpayers will make sure there toilets & clean water available for them. .@@yunsha9986.
I live in Canada and "Tents" were part of the vernacular this past year. Some camped to protest while others camped out of necessity. One died because he had a heater and it became a fire. In The US, alot of Pop Stars go into Real Estate more out of necessity more out of choice. Jon Knight of New Kids On the Block has been doing it for the past 30 years but now he's having problems with a B & B he's renovating.
I remember going through the loss of a baby (miscarriage) and I was off work for 3 weeks. I didn't have enough sick leave to cover the rent. I had to speak to my landlord and she & her husband were absolutely awesome. So after I went bk to work I was able to pay an extra $50 on top of my rent to catch up on my rent. She even sent texts over those horrible weeks to make sure I was ok. Her and her husband were awesome. I feel if you try to work with your landlords things can be worked out
It's funny how they preach "anarchy" when in an anarchist society they would either be made to serve or dealt with badly. It means no protections and no rules. Survival of the fittest. Like, yo.. you can't even manage life now without expecting others to house you for free. They're no anarchists. They're entitled. That is all.
Not paying rent. Squatting. About to be evicted. Evading your landlord. Being a general nuissance. And he has the nerve to shout: "The scumbags are here!" Oh, the irony, pal, the irony.
I bet that they would raise a fuss if those protesters were ordered to permanently take in those squatters and feed them on their dime. In America, the citizens would had called to have those squatters removed .
I knew some people who were squatters. They weren't broke or anything, they just thought they shouldn't have to get a day job and pay rent because they were "artists".
@@mouseymousey02 Of course they weren't broke. They were scamming someone else into paying their rent. Useless people with no responsibilities don't go broke. They just scam someone else.
Whatever happened to breaking and entering? If I own a building there is no way someone is going to show up and just set up there. These owners with buildings need to inspect their properties a few times a week and take more measures. 🙄
@pantarei8382 Well in the US you have the right to defend your property, have surveillance, and call authorities to remove you. I might even blare techno music 24/7 just to get you to move. Just saying that if these people were caught sooner, they wouldn't be all settled in. I myself live in my car, so I'm all for people getting shelter, but not at the expense of a private property owner. What would kids like this do if they broke in and found the owner living inside, do they really think they can just move in too with out permission?
@@Wendy-il3lu "defend your property"? What does that even mean? You can't assault people or shoot them because they have broken into your house. You need to be in danger to justify that.
Some people hate the think that a Landlord should have their money for living in their home which doesn’t belong to them. The stress is just terrible. I would never go through this again
They should all be in jail. The audacity of the shrieking shrew saying "Get out of my face, I am in my home"....um...no you are not. You are trespassing.
The devil really makes laws to protect his flock. This is utter madness. The government might owe you housing but my hard earned property shouldn't be accessed by anyone under whatever circumstances without my authorisation.
Guess they should have thought of that before becoming landlords. Look at the nice cars they’re driving. They’ll be fine, will not shed a single tear for those landlords. They knew the risks they can deal with it
It’s the same in New Zealand, rents are Sky high, and the renters have more rights than the landlords, you will see more of this sort of thing as times get worse with the cost of living .
Here in the states, you have to establish Residency and if you do that after 30 days, then they have to have you evicted at that point they can’t just come in and take you out but Florida and Georgia both now have passed lies that make it legal for police officers to evict people in days weeks. My state needs to do that too!
I think some states are also writing new laws requiring landlords & tenants to file lease paperwork with local government, updating it every time a tenant changes, new lease is issued, etc. It's to combat squatters making fake lease documents to drag out evictions...
Laws need to change, property owners shouldn't have to deal with nonpaying tenants. What tenants fail to realize is these landlords most times have mortgages to pay with the rental fees.
Hello from California 🌴 this is why we will NEVER rent ! We did think about it because my husband knows how to fix almost everything but if people stop paying rent then you have to get a lawyer to get them out 😫😫 NOOOOO too much STRESS 😫🤬😫🤬
Hello from Athens Greece.This is why a beautiful fully renovated and furnished house , i have NEVER rent it 6 years now. I prefare to go and clean it, pay the electricity and water bills plus the common expenses than rent it.The government always protects the renters not the owners.
Please note that Not All squatters are Criminals n as far as I'm concerned would Work without pay n take care of the landlords property for a chance to have a rooff over their heads. However the Law has to be Impartial and has to be obeyed by All.
It is baffling how ignorant some people are. Oh that is their home go away. They are squatting in another man's property. A property that he worked for paid and taxes for.
It happened in a condemned building with a fence around it next to my daughter. The squatters ran an extension cord to steal electricity from my daughter. She unplugged the cord and returned to the condemned property. When my daughter returned, the cord was again plugged in to her outdoor plug. She called the police, and the squatters were arrested. They never returned.
The thing is that these are NOT slumlords!! The squatters & the tenants that owe tons of back rent are foul and so entitled! The landlords are hardworking people that own the flats!! I feel for them. I have known a few slumlords, they don’t care at all about their tenants & the condition of the flats. Maybe it should just be called Nightmare Tenants, period.
This administration is putting many families in difficult situations. A lot of people are financially struggling to live, put a roof over their head and put food on the table.

I was a landlord for 7 years before deciding to sell my property. The stress that tenants bring and how they don’t take care of your property makes the money earned not worth it. To anyone out there who wants to invest in rental properties my advice is to shell out the extra money to hire a property management company to deal with tenants and repairs.
I love Florida and our governor Ron DeSantis. DeSantis did away with squatter's rights. Squatters are now immediately evicted by the police and damages above $1000 they caused to property is classified as a felony. So Squatters can now face serious prison time for squatting. That's the way it should be.
My friend is enduring the same. 7 months and no rent. Court process takes forever. Never would I invest in UK property market. This means it will dry up the property market as builders wont build as no investor
Squatter's need too get out it's not your house or apartment.Shame on you .I hope he got his place back .I live in the US they don't mess with you over here .I could never live in someone's home and not pay.
Hello from Western Washington State. We have the same problem in Seattle. We live on the Kitsap Peninsula. Even in our small suburbs, our next-door neighbors couldn't get rent from their daughter and boyfriend. On top of that, the daughter was renting out two of the 3 bedrooms. The "extra rent" wasn't going to her parents.
Why do they think it’s there home . And why didn’t the developers shut the utilities off. Why are these people not arrested that to me would be breaking and enter and lordering on someone property this is ridiculous that this goes on
@ront2424 Unfortunately, my friend let "friends" stay there who then invited their friends who wouldn't leave. So the friends cut off the power, but then nobody could get the friends of the friends to go who then became squatters. Nightmare!

I had no idea how easy it was to live in London for free. I would never rent a place in my state, Maryland either. A lot of people just let their investment properties sit vacant now. Sad.
Easy solution, the owner can lease to new tenants, these new tenants are huge brawlers and they have the contract to move in and make life difficult for the squatters. Hope they have medical insurance.
@@nobrainsnoheadache2434 Well, if I'm the owner of a house and I'm in the house, then guess what? I can defend my house with deadly force. Besides, probably wouldn't need to shoot. Generally the sound of a pump action shotgun being cycled is pretty convincing. There are people who get leases from the owner, move in with the squatters and make life so miserable for them that they move out. That's also an option.
Has anyone heard of High Court Enforcement Officers? I just saw a documentary series called "The Enforcers." Look at "Squatters vs Enforcers: A Battle For Homes In A Broken System. The Enforcers. Part 1." I'd call them in for help.
Regarding the squatters in the commercial building - If they didn’t give them so much time to gather their belongings (which is probably mostly stolen items) they wouldn’t have had time to go up on the roof or call in their protester buddies.
22:48 sorry, but doesnt government give homeless people food and housing? Or after all the refuges and unrainians who live rent free, there is no houses or shelters left for homeless people of Uk? Why they have to occupy somebody’s property?
Florida passed a law that squatters can be removed by the sheriffs IMMEDIATELY. No court, no delay. But I like these squatters… they give me someone to look down my nose at. They make me feel so superior.
Unbelievable. Can’t even imagine how this is ok and landlords are not protected. I will never rent out a property. Why are laws not in place by now to speed up the process of eviction?
At least you can get a court hearing in less than 5 months in the UK. Here in Canada it takes up to 2 years to get a court hearing and you keep losing money until then. It’s insane.
That old man who argue that is not fair to kick out those squatters then he should invite them to his house so they could have a place to stay where they got permission to stay...
Alex must report the Physiotherapist lady to the board of health since she was running a practice out if the flat, its definitely grounds for a disciplinary.
Perhaps Vicky should e actually done a credit check and reference check? Yup. And taken 1st months rent, last months rent and a security deposit as is standard. She would be out less money. The squatters are disgusting. They are railing against the wrong people. I only feel sorry for the dog
Such crazy laws in UK.i means its obivious the place belongs to Alex but why hv to go thru the hassle of court etc as if the property belongs to the renter???i mean he cant enter his own property?wow that's brutal!!Alex should be allowed to evict by any means available simply because the property by law belongs to him...period!!!if i was Alex i would hv removed all the doors😊
how long in total does it takes in total in UK to get out a tenant that has stoped paying? In France after 2 month missing rent you may hire a bailiff, 2 month after his first visit you may ask a cour hearing , I got one 6 month later. After the hearing, the court has taken 3 mont to make a decision : eviction of tenants. Then the tenants are notified that they must leave in a 2 moth period, if after these 2 month they are still in (my case) the bailiff is requesting police assistance for physical eviction: 2 more month before he gets a specific date. So for France all in all 15-18 month :( might be slightly shorter, may as well be longer if it is a familly with small kids or the tenant appears in court with a free loyer and requests an audience report fr any reasons
@@justtired123 if somehow you can convince the new landlord that your are trustworthy and you have 0 in your bank account (you work only for cash) - then yes!
@@craigmcpherson1455 no, there are no such records available. When looking for a new tenant you may not request from prospects for any judiciary information about them, it is forbidden by low. And if you do so, you may get a fine.
I dont understand dthese housing laws I also dont understand why people keep letting these idiots rent their flats(do some vetting on these tenants before they move in(social media is quite usefull)
Used to own rentals with my wife. Learned a pretty neat trick. Most of these renters have a car or bike or some form of transportation. Had one renter I stole a trailer they used to collect scrap metal. They moved out. The other problem renter. I called from a burner phone. “ Told them to pay me Or I will F up their car and kids bikes” They paid up.
The entitlement of these free-loaders is something else, one "lady" sounded well educated enough to be working but I guess she feels she doesn't need to work and society should feel privileged providing for her.
Could I occupy a campervan that's been sitting on the side of the road unused? And drive it around? Or go steal someone's hoilday home when they're away? Crazy laws 😮
British law should allow eviction with a court order if tenets haven't paid rent without causing the landlord massive payment to lawyers .This is absolutely horrendous.

There are people who get leases from the owner, move in with the squatters and make life so miserable for them that they move out. That's also an option.
I am beyond words at this moment!!!!
I love Alex's energy 😂😂
Has anyone heard of High Court Enforcement Officers? I just saw a documentary series called "The Enforcers." Look at "Squatters vs Enforcers: A Battle For Homes In A Broken System. The Enforcers. Part 1." I'd call them in for help.
Regarding the squatters in the commercial building - If they didn’t give them so much time to gather their belongings (which is probably mostly stolen items) they wouldn’t have had time to go up on the roof or call in their protester buddies.
13:39 After as long as she was there I wouldn't be worrying about my couches being missing, I'd buy everything new.
22:48 sorry, but doesnt government give homeless people food and housing? Or after all the refuges and unrainians who live rent free, there is no houses or shelters left for homeless people of Uk? Why they have to occupy somebody’s property?
Florida passed a law that squatters can be removed by the sheriffs IMMEDIATELY. No court, no delay. But I like these squatters… they give me someone to look down my nose at. They make me feel so superior.
Unbelievable. Can’t even imagine how this is ok and landlords are not protected. I will never rent out a property. Why are laws not in place by now to speed up the process of eviction?
I really love this channel!!!!!❤
At least you can get a court hearing in less than 5 months in the UK. Here in Canada it takes up to 2 years to get a court hearing and you keep losing money until then. It’s insane.
"Im in my home so get out" ...yeah buts its not her home though 🤪🤦♀️🙄
35:11 I would love to see inside one of these lovely homes, they are beautiful!!!
The Government nor the taxpayers should not be responsible to pay for anyone else's rent.
23:20 They're not some people down on their luck. They're entitled brats looking for a free ride.
That old man who argue that is not fair to kick out those squatters then he should invite them to his house so they could have a place to stay where they got permission to stay...
Alex must report the Physiotherapist lady to the board of health since she was running a practice out if the flat, its definitely grounds for a disciplinary.
The legislation needs to change.
Perhaps Vicky should e actually done a credit check and reference check? Yup. And taken 1st months rent, last months rent and a security deposit as is standard. She would be out less money. The squatters are disgusting. They are railing against the wrong people. I only feel sorry for the dog
Such crazy laws in UK.i means its obivious the place belongs to Alex but why hv to go thru the hassle of court etc as if the property belongs to the renter???i mean he cant enter his own property?wow that's brutal!!Alex should be allowed to evict by any means available simply because the property by law belongs to him...period!!!if i was Alex i would hv removed all the doors😊
many other countries are the same, rights are stacked in favour of tenants
That chick telling them get out of her face its her home. Pathetic
Why didn't John have the water and electricity shut off where the squatters were?
imagine a world where people are so ruthlessly devoid of any morality
how long in total does it takes in total in UK to get out a tenant that has stoped paying?
In France after 2 month missing rent you may hire a bailiff, 2 month after his first visit you may ask a cour hearing , I got one 6 month later.
After the hearing, the court has taken 3 mont to make a decision : eviction of tenants.
Then the tenants are notified that they must leave in a 2 moth period, if after these 2 month they are still in (my case) the bailiff is requesting police assistance for physical eviction: 2 more month before he gets a specific date.
So for France all in all 15-18 month :( might be slightly shorter, may as well be longer if it is a familly with small kids or the tenant appears in court with a free loyer and requests an audience report fr any reasons
So in France you can just move every year or so and live mostly for free then?
@@justtired123 if somehow you can convince the new landlord that your are trustworthy and you have 0 in your bank account (you work only for cash) - then yes!
@@alexeiouspenski5302Is there a record of evictions you can look up for prospective tenants?
@@craigmcpherson1455 no, there are no such records available.
When looking for a new tenant you may not request from prospects for any judiciary information about them, it is forbidden by low.
And if you do so, you may get a fine.
I dont understand dthese housing laws I also dont understand why people keep letting these idiots rent their flats(do some vetting on these tenants before they move in(social media is quite usefull)
Or stop buying up properties for "investments" and then cry when he "market" doesn't go your way.
Used to own rentals with my wife. Learned a pretty neat trick. Most of these renters have a car or bike or some form of transportation. Had one renter I stole a trailer they used to collect scrap metal. They moved out. The other problem renter. I called from a burner phone. “ Told them to pay me
Or I will F up their car and kids bikes” They paid up.
Why are people so entitled?
The entitlement of these free-loaders is something else, one "lady" sounded well educated enough to be working but I guess she feels she doesn't need to work and society should feel privileged providing for her.
Whoa!!! The commercial property squatters even had Jabba the Hutt on their side.
great show
That's why there are hardly any rentals nyc available...no one wants to rent out their place
I found the easiest way to remove them was to pay them a visit and explain things if you understand...no problem.
How do you even get furniture upstairs?
Wats parking like in London looks confusing i live in NY
Could I occupy a campervan that's been sitting on the side of the road unused? And drive it around? Or go steal someone's hoilday home when they're away? Crazy laws 😮
Why don't the protesters allow the cowards to live w them? All talk no action 😂😂😂
at 20:37 what sort of argument/ reason is that? its empty and u have the right to stay? wahhh??
If you have a commercial property, that you gonna teardown. Just make it unlivable !
Am really beat to understand what's causing all this? All around UK.
Australia got the same problem ,not enough housing and rents have double 😞
Sydney sider here, agreed it's getting unbearable 😭
Same in Melbourne
No Australia has a serious problem with extremely high immigration
Squatters in australia? Which suburb are we talking about b'meadows?
@@Vmr48765 In Australia criminals are protected so squatters can steal any house they want
How could it get to 7500 backrent?
British law should allow eviction with a court order if tenets haven't paid rent without causing the landlord massive payment to lawyers .This is absolutely horrendous.
@32:55 in MY HOME??!!
Make sure you give tenants rent receipts and of course keep a record 👍
We are all doomed
Is the law is on the side of the lawless They should go to jail!!
Prisons are full, cops ordered not to arrest that leads to jail. Order from the top.
They should try this in West Texas
Why not cut the electricity to the building...the old metro station in Bristol i guess
The landlord won’t see a dime of the money owed, these people have nothing, no assets to attach.
