Squatter and home owner stand-off | How I remove a squatter from my house

- One of the houses I was flipping a while back had a squatter move-in right in the middle of the selling process. Watch and you can see how the police are absolutely no help, and how I was able to deal with the situation, legally.
This cop is part of the problem. 7:32
Yes! Definitely
Yes. Referencing his "attitude"? He is the victim. That squatter is not a victim because if someone showed up with proof, as an occupant, I would be soooo humble.
Absolutely. Avoid calling them. There are 100 different ways to get them out
This is burglary and breaking and entering!! Stupid cop!!
@@Red3-j4j same thing I said!
what I do not understand is how burglary and breaking and entering suddenly became squatters rights, the idea that squatters actually have more rights then the person that owns the house is so bizzare
Very! All they glt to do is create a fake lease
Did you see that viral clip of a Venezuelan man I believe, telling people how to get free rent by doing this? How stupid Americans were for our laws? I was grateful to see that eventually it turned on him and he was crying online that he was being deported. This stuff is getting crazy.

Look what she’s driving. These people need to be prosecuted for fraud and B&E!
Yes absolutely!!
It was so very kind of you to store their things and giving her a little money. She might have been a squatter, or she might've been scammed. You presented both sides. Very kind of you.
@OMWone6629 yea you never know these days
As soon as you hear the squatter you know she is in the wrong
@lorig4871 it was just kind of him that he was giving her the benefit of the doubt that someone else might've ripped her off by giving her a fake lease.
@OMWone6629 yea you never know these days
I think I have an idea for a new line of work, house sitting for people who are going to have a house sitting empty for any length of time
It's actually people who do that already. I usually setup security cameras but I couldn't get service in that area for some reason and Simplysafe wouldn't work.
If you have wifi, you can get cameras cheap at home depot
@Sassygagirl I use Simplysafe cameras in all my properties, but for whatever reason they wouldn't work in that area (base station wouldn't get a signal).
Was thinking the exact same thing.
What a gorgeous home! I would have been livid if this happened to me. This squatter crap is evil. They destroy so many lives and should serve a month in jail for every week the homeowners were put out. You know they’ll never get their money back. They trash the properties because they’re trashy scammers. Sickening.
@elizabethcarrington5819 very sickening!
@@allusmahnkes8126That’s such a cute home. Love those wood floors…
Don’t ever call the cops. Just get them out.
That cop is part of the problem
Yup
I can't imagine having an empty home and not having video surveillance put up to prevent this situation.
Next time, you go into YOUR HOUSE and if someone is in there they are breaking & entering. So if you have to defend yourself (by whatever means necessary) and your property. They are committing the crime, not you!
Exactly!!!!
@@allusmahnkes8126 I want to know why a 162 yr old law is still being used to protect sqautters? 1862 homesteaders act.
The police officer was siding with the squatter.
@elizabethquitanilla604 yes, definitely. They all were
The owner is in the right! The squatter is in the wrong!
@MaLiArtworks186 yea that's what I thought, but the cop wasn't trying to hear nothing I had to say basically
@@allusmahnkes8126 This country is getting more and more nutty each day!
Squatting is a BURGLARY!!! Without giving any state or names. I knew someone this happened to. He found out that day that people were squatting inside, a house he owned and was selling. They were out that same night. He and his family and friends were not having that crap. Enough said. No police, no court, no damage to his property, and he made them clean it up and throw out the trash. They were begging them to let them go. He sold the house. LMAO.

Squatter laws are some of the most ridiculous, unfair and dumb laws out there
No one should be able to go to an empty house and squat and then be protected from having their asses thrown out by the owner.
So many crazy stories and at the end of the day there needs to be a change in law if it’s so easy to get a ‘lease’ or whatever it is they get in different cases.
Should be treated the same as breaking and entering and trespass especially if they break in
Definitely! That's the same thing I kept saying to the cops
I know, sometimes I think the sitting makes it more difficult for the owners when the most simplest thing is to actually bring the deed to the home to the police station and they have to act on it that somebody’s legally living or squatting, actually into your home that you didn’t tell they could actually live there And all they had to do was ask a couple questions if the tenant is supposed to be there, they should be able to produce there. They should be able to produce utility bill one. It should be enough electric water insurance cable anyone of those bills would do for the home that it they are squirting in And then that’s all the police officer has to ask if they came produced and they know they ain’t supposed to be there if they produced it then you got the problem you know you gotta go to Long road but at least you know where you stand and have to go to the eviction process and at least then they also know they gotta find somewhere else to go and you’ve given them plenty of time for them to find someplace. You have to go to the eviction process, sometimes the most simplest answers is sometimes the easiest, but the law likes to make it complicated thinking you’re taking advantage of people when that is not always the case I say probably no more than 210 is that ever the case where the tenant is being taken advantage of and as used and also I mean, I think he said he did advertise on the marketplace, but it’s not to rent it. It’s to buy that’s why I don’t like you know marketplace and craigslist because you have a whole bunch of people trying to freely use the site advertisement for homes when I think they should not do that on those sites for homes and apartments because those places are just too important to get wrong. You know what I’m saying and have to you know put a heavy retainer to hold or rent because usually the people that usually surf those are either flippers or people that need to rent, but they can’t always afford credit on their credit because they know that it’s too low to rent even though I think that is just a kind of a former discrimination against everybody to have to. It only indicates if people are behind on their bills, that’s all it really does personally I think most people I say eight out of 10 will not be late on your rent on the place you have to live in. They might be late on their electric bill their water bill the cable bill but if you ain’t got a roof of your head the rest of that stuff doesn’t even matter because you ain’t got a roof why do you need a pay electric? Why do you need cable? Why do you need pay a water bill if they ain’t got nowhere to use it hopefully that is your first bill you will always pay every month is your rent to your place that you lay your head, and maybe make if that is the case that they say they came up with a lease then maybe they need to start streamlining a lease county it should have your name up top the address where your actual written and a number to contact and all the information of the tenant on it then if there’s ever a problem, all an officer has to do is asked to see the lease and our utility bill if they can produce those then you know they are scamming the person you’re trying to rent from your family. They still have to go through the process there’s no easy way for them to get out of it, it’s the family member if they don’t go to the right process for the county they also as a consequence for not going through proper channels for one day it protects you as the owner and it protects your tenant if you go through the county procedures correctly I swear they make it more difficult than it actually is

Yea a whole lot. I've went to veiw an off-market property for sale and a squatter came to the door with a gun
There are new laws in some states squatters. Are removed by police. No more wasting courts time. If it isn’t your place out you go. Should have happened a long time ago
The house 🏠 is beautiful 🤩❤️
@@debratownsend5495 Thanks!
She knew what was up and whatever scam they were scamming that was going to be up so she was trying to intimidate you into backing down and have to go to the 4 to 5 month month long process due to court to get her out and she was going to ride it out for that time until she can secure herself Lodging somewhere else, but in the meantime, she could save up for five months with the pay to actually afford another place if she’s actually working to get her out of your property awes why she came all aggressive once she told her that you were the actual owner because you hadn’t even asked for the most obvious questions so you would know if she is actually got scammed, or she was the scammer
...I don't know if it's just bc I'm a homeowner, but this almost made me have an anxiety attack! *the way I am thinking right now, my fam would be bringing me smokes & putting money on my books..and I dont even smoke!😂
@@retromomma8720 🤣🤣🤣🤣
She wasnt squatting, she was trespassing AFTER she b&e (breaking and entering) which is a criminal offense.
Never say squatter to the police.
That police officer could've cared less. I would feel so violated buying a house and someone is living in it and the police don't care. The squatter and the police are both DESPICABLE!
@@talkaboutwacky preach!!!! I can't even explain how mad I was
I don't understand how someone being on your property without permission is a civil matter
I have no idea, I talked to about 6 different cops and they were all saying the same thing
The laws are stupid and it IS a civil matter. The Police are not equipped with the data to know who owns what. People can have paperwork with fake court seals and everything. Police are liable if they illegally put somebody out. The laws are written stupidly. That officer didn’t explain it properly either by making slick comments like “you ever been a police officer?” You should’ve asked her if she’s ever been a real estate investor.
As far as taking 3 hours to get there, Detroit is jumping and it’s not enough officers to handle the call volume. There’s more calls than police and the “hot” calls come first. I know because I’m on both sides of the coin lol.
@teegreenburg yea the laws are stupid. But what wasn't on the video is the first encounter I had with the police and I had my laptop and showed them the county record of who owns the house. They didn't care though
@@allusmahnkes8126 I get it.
@@teegreenburg get what?
They need to change the law for squatters rights. This is just ridiculous. It's breaking an entering is what it is. I can't believe anyone could just break into a house, change the locks, and write up a lease, and have a free place to live for God knows how long, until they're legally evicted. That is just insane!!
@christinegarman6241 yea tell me about it! I see they changed the law in Florida, now they just go right in and throw them out
Omg!! The officers are actually helping that crook stay in that man’s house . It’s so unbelievable that the rightful owner is expected to go through a lengthy court process to get this “tenant” out?! I guess since the cops are calling this a civil matter and they can’t help , then leave them out of it all together .
@@ShyDog827 that's basically what the cops were saying

Just a mess. But she knew what she was doing .
You need cameras and check on your property daily.
I usually do put cameras in all my properties but they wouldn't connect for some reason in that area. And I don't live close enough to check on my properties everyday
Homeowners need more rights. Squatters can just move in to someones home and say l have a lease, cops okay goodbye. They are no help, it ends up costing a lot of money to get them out. They get there crap and move on to the next property, and distroy someone else's life
@@debbiejackson7218 definitely, no help AT ALL!
GREAT VIDEO!!! You all gotta do a better job of securing those homes. sounds like "cash for keys" is what she wanted all along.
Yea I usually put cameras and a security system to every home I flip but for whatever reason I couldn't get simplysafe to work at that house, they couldn't get a signal to the base.
This lady cop has no knowledge of what she is saying. I wouldn't have her to investigate who took my chips and water.

@@marymcgee7166 definitely! Tell me about it
Some states today have no squatters rights anymore.
I do t believe she got scammed. She's a squatter by trade, you can tell by the way that she's living. No one that had paid $5k for a move in would be living under the standards or conditions that she was living under.
@@aubreyrosie6265 exactly
No me I probably would’ve did if I own a home like that and it’s winter in Chicago cause I know if there was a few little flurries I saw 45 days ago no me I would’ve had called me. A skilled treatment came in removed all windows. It’s your house. I would’ve removed the windows and you see she put a stinky cord to her neighbors. I would’ve told you to go walk to your neighbors and tell them the situation and not let them hook up to their home no water no gas no electric, no nothing. I hate the cold but if that is your property, just warn your neighbors that they’re not supposed to be there.
Absolutely stunning house 😍. Your so lucky in America. Your homes are a lot more spacious than what we have here (🇬🇧) It’s easier to get get Squatters out of properties here, it seems ridiculous what home owners have to through there 😢xxxxx
@somerandomkid9438 Thank you, appreciate it! How do you guys get squatters out over there?
@@allusmahnkes8126 If the squatter/tenant fails to vacate after the order for possession has expired
10:44 Anyway, what happened? You can barely hear anything with the noise.
I was listening to a real estate mogul. He was looking at somebody in Florida that got a squatter out. They had some woman that they hired to show the police that she actually had a lease to rent out the house. You go get a lease from somebody that you rent the house out from predating the other ladies lease, and she hast to go because of that point she would be trespassing. The other thing that my granddad used to do back in the day, he would take the doors off of House. He will get a tenant that wouldn’t pay rent, the doors would come off.
@lt3096 yea that would've been my next step, to take the doors off
Advice from a retired police officer……..don’t call the cops ever and handle it yourself.
@happycamper4263 yea I see.
Go squat in the police officer’s house since she’s so team “tenant”. Let’s see how quickly that tune changes.
@@Raygirl695 🤣🤣🤣 ikr!
Very pretty house. Good luck in the future.
Why would you knock on the door if it's your house and you have the keys
@bobbiefrank5043 you clearly didn't hear nothing that was said in the video. They keys were in the lockbox and she broke the lockbox off the meter and took the keys out 🤨
You guys need to go and squat on the squartters. As soon as they leave go in the house with a few people and just wait for them to return. And tell them we're all living together because you have a lease too.
@aubreyrosie6265 lol, yea I seen a guy in California did that
I like the Home for myself! Really nice.
What a gorgeous house

@@imillion82 definitely
I believe she was scammed. It’s unfortunate that you also fell victim to it. The frustration is definitely understandable. I understand your perspective. I also understand that mother, who is finding out the house she thought she was renting wasn’t even legit.
@valenciaarnold6065 🤔🤔🤔. It's possible she was scammed. But a lot of stuff she was saying wasn't adding up
The officer is making up stuff. The owner does not have to take a squatter to court. I had the same issue, called DPD and they removed the squatter right then. I hate when people give misinformation!!!
@brandijenkins2242 yea I know, 4 different cops said 4 different reasons why they couldn't do anything. But I got her out though
They need to run her background cuz i guarantee that squatter has done this before. If she has a history of this she should be arrested on the spot.
Definitely!
She knew exactly what was going on a house that nice. Come on it was to good to be true.
How to deal with squatters
Get some "friends"
And camp in your front yard
Get the grill out and have fun

@nikolewilhart6758 yea I don't mind getting played to make $130k 😏

I remember the “maintenance” guy moving me into an apartment. He has various people believing he was the landlord/owner. The apartments were owned by different people. But long story short ….

@ladyDesi27 wow, that's crazy
@@allusmahnkes8126 and my sister (before she passed 3 years ago) was so heart broken when she found out that the home she was renting was really supposed to be for sale. The owner lived out of town and only needed her close friend to show the homes she owns to people looking to buy. Sadly the owner found out her friend was renting all the homes and collecting the money. It’s very sad
As a landlord, I get why the police are hesitant, any one can fake documents so they need to be sure before they act. But squatters are clever and there needs to be clear guidelines to clear out trespassers without the court waste of time and money.
This owner is right, utilities are off so no occupation is allowed.
It should be on the squatters to go after the people that scammed them. And they need to get out now! She was scammed, not you! That’s her issue and you have all the paperwork showing that you are the rightful owner and she has no lease with your name on it.

So you telling me if the officer asked to for her to show a lease and she cannot produce that lease I wonder can you ask the officer to arrest the person that has a legally entered your home because now she’s breaking an entering wouldn’t be the easiest thing for them Establish if she is rightfully a tenant and what also long with the lease can she not produce her the receipt that she paid? They’re not gonna even a fake one is not gonna let you move into a home that you say you are a tenant of handing over money to the scammer mean she should be able to pro produce a money order a credit card statement from your bank has rent on it so you know how you know who you paid
She wrote up that lease & she has no receipts

@jnai-gr3tr Thanks, appreciate it
I hope your squatter doesn't realize she can sue you for making her uncomfortable. I spent 2 weeks going to the court house to obtain the application, they DON'T have. Its call on affidavit to remove intruder. Even after I created one, had it notarized, 5 Sheriff's show up and say they "cant intrude of the squatters civil rights," 13 dam people & 4 kids broke in & took over, making bank & squatting 5 months. It's criminal. Id let loose 300 rats in that house & see if that get them out😅
