After two investigations into squatting went viral, the 7 On Your Side team has what is being done to change the law -- and tips for homeowners to avoid becoming a victim.
Nina Pineda and Dan Krauth have the latest on squatters taking over homes and how to prevent it.After two 7 On Your Side Investigations into squatting went viral, there has been a growing push from city and state lawmakers to change the law.
"I mean millions and millions of people have looked at your video and look at this and say how can this be happening, it's upside down," said Korchak. "It will make it so that someone who's trespassing, someone who is simply on the property as a squatter, will not be listed as a tenant with the law," said Blumencranz. "They'd be simply a trespasser and law enforcement can do their job and remove a trespasser but they can't remove a tenant."
The key to defending yourself in a squatting case is proving they shouldn't be there to begin with. Also, if you know you are leaving your property unattended for an extended time, report it to police beforehand.
