So you go to work and come home in the afternoon to find someone sitting on
your sofa, eating your food and watching your TV, but you can't have him
arrested or even kicked out of your home because you didn't happen to catch
him in the actual act of breaking through the door or window? I guess if
it's nighttime and you sleep through the initial break-in and oly wake up
in time to find someone lurking in your home, you just have o hand over
your home to the burglar and go get a lawyer because it's now a civil
matter? Idiotic.

artists that moved into a house they don't own (and yes, I think it likely
that they were in cahoots with the 'real estate agent' that 'sold' them the
house). If you buy something from someone that didn't own it, you should
have very little right to maintain possession and that extends to this
'adverse possession' scenario since the property had not been abandoned for
decades...or at all since a homeowner abandoning a property actually means
that ownership reverts back to the bank, not any random 'adverse possessor'.
Meanwhile, the 'real home owners' haven't made any payment on this property
in a long time (year), have no equity, and are only in theory going to try
and make some payment in the future (based upon a soon to come part time
job?). They shouldn't have much more claim to it property at this point
than these 'squatters'. The *real owner* of the property is the bank and
the bank should be working actively to remove both sets of 'squatters' from
their property.

True story of life in Scottsdale: Friend of mine (also neighbor) had
noticed stuff was getting moved around for awhile but we couldn't figure
out how or why. One day she sent her assistant to her house during the
day to pick something up. Assistant comes back and says "did you know
your friend Bill is in your house?" (No, she didn't). She goes over and
it turns out that Bill is homeless and, having procured a key, living in
her house during the day and going someplace else at night and ... had
no intention of stopping. She calls the cops. Cops show up and Bill
says "oh, no, I live here, she's just mad at me" Cops go next door and
the neighbors say "oh, sure, that guy has been there for weeks" so the
cops come back and yell at her for crying burglar over a domestic
dispute and just LEAVE HERE THERE WITH THE INTRUDER. So she changed the
locks and I'd go by and make sure he wasn't there periodically while she
was at work.
Weeks later he calls and says he has some stuff of hers he wants to
return and she says 'come on over' (I hit the roof) and he - I swear -
shows up at her door completely decked out in her clothes ...

Yeah. Can that actually be standard practice? I mean, suppose the guy

phoney real estate agent but they should have known something was up
when they saw everything still in the house including clothes and

After 2 months they moved out (out of state) because they needed someone to
live off of while trying to get back on their feet (guy got a temp/parttime
job with an auto race team). Four or five months later they called a
neighbor and found out someone was living in their home. At that point,
they got annoyed because if someone is able to live in the home for free it
should be them, right? Unfortunately, the whackadoo religious whatnots in
the home know how to work the system so they actually managed to get
restraining orders against the home owners. Police are calling the whole
thing a civil matter, so they won't arrest anyone. The home owners now have
an eviction notice against the squatters, but the squatters still haven't
moved out. Apparently the sheriff's office will do something to forcibly
remove them in the next month. The squatters 'bought the home' (scam) under
the guidelines of 'adverse possession' which requires a person to live in a
home (or on land) for 18 years without complaint before actual ownership
transfers. Clearly, they have no standing and should be booted off the
property.

are $5,000 homes in lots of places. In fact, I remember seeing town homes
going for $5,000 in Phoenix at one time...in a neighborhood where the
townhomes sold new for about $70,000. The catch, though, was that you could
only buy the $5,000 homes if you were poor because the government was
auctioning them off only to 'qualified buyers'. 'Qualified' in this case
meaning that you had to be living below the poverty line. Basically, the
government was trying to force home ownership rather than allowing investors
to buy up the properties and turn them into rentals.
