ATLANTA - Georgia's legislators have a new message for property squatters: The law is no longer on your side. Waiting for Gov. Brian Kemp's signature is the "Georgia Squatter Reform Act."
Squatters live in other people's homes without permission, rent-free, and refuse to leave. But when kicking them out, the law has been on their side. The real homeowners call the police, but they are too often told they have to take these strangers to court.

Trespassing, breaking and entering, illegal entry, burglary. They are not squatters, they are criminals, let them squat in prison for a while.
😂 I agree!
If you look in the past this would not be happening the police would get the squatters or bums out, now you are letting people who steal, get away with others property. What is going on with society that the home owners has less rights, any thoughts from others on this problem that is nation wide, or the wondering of many across the border and tax payers get stuck with the bill.
Amen!
Lmao, squat in prison
Ok when these people turn to burning down communities you will learn to stop passing laws for the homeless
Florida law kicks out squatters IMMEDIATELY !!!!
Exactly, this new Georgia bill still requires you to go to court costing homeowners time and money 🤦♂️
@@AtlantaGunsthat little added bonus that allows the system to profit! 🙄
Florida just started doing this like last week
It doesn’t go into effect until July I believe
Good for Florida! The rest of the U.S. needs to follow their lead!
Don't call them tenants! They are criminals, plain and simple.
blah blah blah .... say whatever you want. If you think this reform act will changes anything think again. Take the law into your own hands! Make a squatter think twice about entering someone home.
SOMEONE TOLD ME ONCE CALL THEM SHARK BAIT!
Agreed
its the entire DEMONgraphic
Scott Adams knew it
Also don't call them squatters, call them thieves.
Good. Every State needs to get rid of squatters.
Every state?
@JordanKahele
Yes, EVERY state - squatters ARE criminals - they illegally enter and occupy the rightful owners property without permission.
They ARE criminals, just like illegal aliens.
Newsom won’t do it and Hochul won’t do it!
I don't think I care enough to agree.
@JordanKahele
Oh, you'd care,..you'd care as soon as some worthless criminal parasite entered your home and then began living there without your permission!
They should be arrested immediately and put in jail.
Exactly. While something like this law is better than nothing, it still means the homeowner needs to prove they own the home or that they did not rent it out to whoever decided to live there for free. And the squatters still have time to steal from the property or trash the place.
@@sbffsbrarbrrYup, it's a total half-measure that won't eliminate the problem, still takes a long time, and doesn't make it a felony so the people will just move on to the next property!
They should have done like Florida just did and just empower police to remove a squatter and throw them in jail on felony charges on the spot. They didn't even make providing a fake lease a felony!
Florida's version is better making it a Felony to write a fake lease or try to sell someone else's property.
This may be news to you but all of those things were already illegal so them create a new law is just to pander to sheep like you
How in the world would you sell someone else's property?
@@hieverybody4246oh people have done it and not enough laws to stop it
@@Bubbles-qh7ezexactly 💯
@@hieverybody4246You créate a fake lease, sell it to someone, then vanish before they realize it’s fake.
Very common with apartments, the scammer will just vanish with the down payment and first couple months rents
Florida's Squatter law is even better. The squatters can be removed immediately while it goes through the courts.
Yes but this is a start and better than nothing.
@@destroyerofsimps6574why do we need a start? Florida’s “start” is way better. I’m not cool with trespassers being legally allowed to stay in my home for up to 7 days without issue. Just me. I can see you being happy and dancing outside your home for a week cheering the squatters on until they’re forced out after damaging and doing whatever they want to your home(s).
who cares? it's a start
@@EchoAccord homeowners
@@illogik Problem is if it turns out the homeowner is lying, like if its' a tenant they're evicting. While there are punishments for lying in the Florida law, it can still screw folks over.
It's absolutely ridiculous that they even have to pass a law to protect homeowners from people breaking into their house and staying
It took a Venezuelan invasion for them to do something about it. L
@@Jim-wj3mk actually it was thr fact that they're now squatting in upscale properties...it's the *only* reason tbis law is being rushed thru. But, the end result will help *all* homeowners 👍
Disgusting. That guy featured had a machete? Child trafficking? OMG! 😢😢😢😢 Way past time to stop and protect all people! It is an election year so now is the time to get things done. This was known but nothing happened to help? Since 2021? 😮How many have been suffering in every neighborhood? Speak up now!
‼️‼️‼️
@@clairelivefreeordie2551 yeah soon as a politician is affected the law gets changed over night..
Florida Desantis already signed a bill to protect homeowners from these criminals. There should be no laws FOR squatting. Desantis gave police the right to immediately arrest. Not 3 days or 7
There are no laws that protect squatters specifically, squatters abuse laws that protect legal tenants from immediate eviction by claiming to be legal tenants.
@@guameldestruir6239 the USA was founded by squatters...
@@guameldestruir6239yes there are laws that protect squatters
That's the problem. How on earth are there laws FOR squatters. They are criminals. Makes zero sense. They break in to get in. Any other time that's breaking and entering. How does moving a bunch of stuff in change the dynamic?
Also people are getting their homes stolen by title fraud because they don't require identification to prove you re the homeowner at the county office
GOING NATIONWIDE!
Thanks to that illegal immigrant post
Good, it should!!
@@wileecoyote5749 YOU KNOW THE SQUATTERS ARE AMERICAN ALSO. SO ANY CRIME COMMITTED HAS NO RELIGION, RACE, SEX DISCRIMINATION AT ALL! THE DIFFERENCE IS AMERICAN GO TO JAIL AND ALL IMMIGRANTS GO BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY AND U FLIP THE TAX BILL.
Except for New York, California, and all the jurisdiction run by liberal loonies.
Only in red states. Blue states are still communist
It should be a felony for someone to falsely claim they have a lease just to be a squatter, or to present a false lease in court.
He would lose the house he is squatting in. Lol.
Florida's law makes it a criminal offense with jail time but unfortunately it isn't a felony.
yes absolutely !
@@josephpearlman4010It should be a felony!, if you steal above $×××× amount of goods or money it is. A landlord/home owner could easily lose or spend this legally evicting some one. Not to talk about property damage insurance rises!
@@neil999ish Although I agree, unless the landlord is willing to go through the process, the police will not waste the time in charging them as they do consider the monetary settlement to be civil.
This bill is nonsense. It still requires the owner to take the squatters to court. The bill just speeds up the COURT process while the squatter stays on the property. This bill does not allow for immediate removal of the squatter. Pure nonsense bill.
Now squatters will squat in someones house for a few days instead of getting a motel room. It's either that or sleep in the woods.
Because you can’t just kick someone out when they present a lease. Otherwise anyone renting could be kicked out immediately. This bill still works by making it very difficult to squat for any period of time.
@@joebidenisyourpresidentget2481if the property owner or their authorized agent didn't sign the lease it is invalid
@@joebidenisyourpresidentget2481 How about let them be kicked out, but if the landlord lied and they did have a valid lease it is a felony? How many landlords would kick out legal tenants if that was the case?
@@bobbalcom2658 I think you ought read what you replied to again. You completely misunderstood 🙄
People in NYC hire security to watch their homes when they go on vacation. Laws like this need to be passed all over the country, this is ridiculous.
Here in Florida it takes 1 day.
AMEN, AMEN😊❤
Applause to your local goverment
Thats a logical and sane law
1 hour
Don't brag it just got into law
Good. No more moving into someone else's property. Get a job and buy your own.
That be raysist n shyt
You funny 😁 @@wileecoyote5749
@wileecoyote5749 😢 poor guy! 😅😂
@wileecoyote5749 not even close to being racist! The proper term or word is theft, or stealing!
Why they give rights to criminals
1:38 Last x I laughed is when he said it on air..
On the very rare chance that the owner/landlord is lying. But the vast majority of cases are nonlegal squatters staying and inconsequentially doing thousands of dollars $$ of damages and court costs. In the rare case that the landlord is breaking a real lease, then let that rare tenant take the landlord to court. In the meantime, the property is not subject to what historically happens, which is revenge damage.
The politicians are slow and stupid. Enough said.
To all homeowners, be sure to put up “NO TRESPASSING” signs all around your home if you’re going away. It can help your case if you get squatters invading your house.
It’s about damn time!👏 Imagine paying a mortgage, utilities abs taxes on a property that you legally don’t have access to… All while a low-life without a care in the world is protected by the same law you’re to abide by. Then when the criminals finally move out, You’re stuck with repairs of your home. They walk away Scott free.🤦♂️
After stealing/ destroying your life's memories, and your sense of safety in your own home.
Every single state needs to put this law into effect immediately
About time! This needs to be enacted in all 50 states!
im from the Philippines and im closely following this development. please be safe homeowners and petition a mental asylum for your lawmakers for letting it go this far.
Every country puts bad people in office
About time sign the bill
The President should be signing this into law for the whole country instead of waiting for every state to do this by themselves.
Can't. It's a state issue and not a federal issue.
Our president is a demented fool😂
The federal government can’t do everything but the state governments can. Otherwise we could just get rid of state governments.
Do you not know who the president is?
The souther border is having to be secured at the state level because unlike any of his predecessors he refuses to do his job.
And that's why he's gonna get replaced in 8 months. He has the brains of a slug.
Every State need to follow Florida
Following Governor Desantis lead in Florida.
Good for you Georgia. I didn’t think you had it in you.
😂😂😂
Florida's law is even better. The squatter can be removed immediately and if they produce a fake lease or damage the property, there can be jail time.
@@josephpearlman4010I think I'm Florida DeSantis has made it a felony.
I’m not sure what you’re talking about. Either this is just a joke that I don’t quite get or you’re very confused about Georgia.
Its really that we managed to do so while ATL exist.
I’m glad to hear it. Now only 48 more states to go!
Every state in the country need this!!!!
There should be a line in the bill that says in the end that if they are found without a legal lease then they should be charged with a felony and hauled to prison and not simply removed from property only to for another home to owner to have to go through the same thing.
That's what the Florida bill does (in addition to making it an on the spot decision by cops), but this is Georgia, where Democrats have a lot of power to obstruct. So it's more theater than corrective measure.
the man is threatening people and the police can't arrested him because he's a squatter?? this new law will do NOTHING if the responding officers refuse to enforce it
He's not threatening people I think. Just scaring them by being an idiot.
EVERY STATE needs reform on squatter laws.
Why does there need to be a law. If you broke in and or trespassing you are breaking the law!!!!!!! They should be immediately removed, not have to go to court to get them out of your home!!!! This is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard!
We need that in California
That will never happen, unless squatters invade the rich people’s gated homes
We need that everywhere.
There is actually a case where it's still on your ng. Someone took over a big mansion that belonged to a scummy doctor who fled the country. The STATE of CA needs to sell the house to pay back the gov for all the fraud the doctor did but can't because of the squatter's 😂 the rich neighbors are all pissed because they hold huge and loud parties almost daily.
Hopefully this law passes in every state. It makes no sense for someone to take over your home, but the county still wants you to pay your taxes to a home you don't have anymore
I've been waiting for this! Now, I can list my house for rent with a little less fear of squatters.
Create a temp lease for a close friend, what until squatter leaves, you and friend go inside. Wait for squatter to return, call police and report squatter trying to break in. Show police the temp lease. Just a suggestion.
It should be a federal law to not have squatters rights and a felony for property destruction and breaking and entering. Being able to get them out immediately to under a week is way better than 2 years
The SQUATERS LAWS IN THE CITY OF DETROIT NEED TO CHANGE TOO.
I HOPE OTHER 48 remaining states change their squatters laws as well
these squatters make me feel terrified to buy a home in the future.... these laws need to be passed nationwide
This needs to be countrywide.
The Florida version is vastly better. It's instant instead of 10 days, police can make a decision on the spot, doesn't overburden to courts, and it criminalizes either side if they lie.
Finally!!
That's Florida and Georgia now.
In Florida its a bit worse for squatters. In Florida its no longer a misdemeanor, It will be a hard FELONY.
You WILL go to prison in Florida. And police has direct authority to evict anyone that does not show a legal lease documentation.
And the landlord has to be called to verify the lease agreement.
In NYC, 2 republican Senators are passing a bill that would clearly describe "What Is A Legal Tenant" to counteract the squatter scam.
You have to have legal papers and have a lease and have permission by the landlord to be on the property.
But of course, the democrats are trying to stop that bill from being passed. Which is making New Yorker's really angry, to the point that they are now saying they will vote out
any Senator or NY Counsel member from office that hinders this bill.
Texas is also working on a new squatters prevention bill, and so is Washington State.
Time will only tell who else will follow Florida. Florida is the most strictest state, as in that state, you will be charged will a hard felony.
Idaho is another state working on a squatters scam prevention bill.
Idaho is also working on a second bill at the same time, which is a illegal migrant bill. A law that would give Idaho police the right to evict migrants from the state and send them back
to the migrants original country. The reason for this is, Idaho is experiencing a enormous spike in crimes and squatter problem from migrants.
They are getting hostile towards American citizens and assaults are skyrocketing in Idaho. So now several senators are pushing a few bills to deal with these problems.
Currently there are a bunch of TikTok videos from Venezuelan migrants telling other migrants to go to the USA and over take peoples houses by force.
The CBP Homeland Security federal police officers have sent out an emergency notice to ALL law enforcement agencies across the United States informing them
that migrants are getting extremely violent and aggressive. 27 police officers and National Guard have been severely injured at the border.
NewsNation channel just did a news piece and they have video showing how aggressive migrants are becoming.
They are being told to act this way by other migrants on TikTok . The day that happened, Florida Senators immediately passed a squatters law.
Which was already signed by the Florida governor and the new law its effective immediately.
Also, in NYC on March 24th 2024.
a woman in Manhattan was k!lled after being away from her apartment for a few days, when she returned to her apartment she found 2 migrants squatting in her apartment.
She tried to throw them out, when she started to call the police, they k!lled her and stuffed her in a duffle bag.
Also this month in NYC, a woman who inherited a house from her grandmother after her grandmother passed away was arrested,
for trying to throw out a migrant squatter from her house that she legally owns and has the deed for.
Another woman in Queens was beaten half to de*th with very severe injuries was hospitalized after 3 migrants broke into her apartment
and squatted in her apartment. Cops did not arrest the squatters as the migrants are claiming the apartment.
Meanwhile the ladies property is still in her apartment as she lays in the hospital with severe injuries.
In California a man was arrested after trying to toss out squatters in his new house he just moved into. Its newly purchased and he just moved into it.
He went to work, and when he came back at the end of the day, he found squatters in his brand new house he just moved into with his wife.
They are forced to continue to pay for utilities and mortgage while the migrant squatter is illegally living in his brand new house he just moved into with his wife.
ALL their property still remains in the house, but the owners are afraid that they also just lost all their personal property that's inside.
California now has over 800 illegal migrant squatting in many peoples homes. The problem has become wide spread in California.
The owners are on a 8 month waiting list to evict the illegal squatters who happen to be migrants living in his brand new house he just moved into with his wife.
When the California governor was asked about the enormous spike of squatters in California and if he will change the law,
he brushed off the news reporters with some vague answer and walked off.
Chicago is also experiencing a massive spike in migrant illegal squatters.
Boston is also experiencing this as well.
It actually won't become effective until July.
The changes go into effect July 1. "You are not going to be able to commandeer somebody's private property and expect to get away with it," said DeSantis during a press conference.
@@jecs2123
Aaah, the news station over here said immediately. Anyways its way better than NYC though.
We have 2 republicans trying to pass a Squatters prevention bill, but they are being blocked by democrats in the NY Counsel and in the Senate.
Its like they want this shyte to happen.
Even though the 2 republicans trying to pass a bill to go into law, the law is a little to light and not as strong as FLorida.
I don't know wtf these people are doing over here, but its a disaster.
By the way that migrant that went on TikTok telling all his cronies aka migrants to go to the USA and just take peoples homes.
He got deported and ALL his American documents got revoked permanently by what several news stations have said.
Homeland Security and CBP Federal Police Officers and I.C.E. ALL have said he got thrown out of the country permanently.
A few sitting Senators and NY Counsel want to bring I.C.E. back to NYC, but they are being met with democratic Senators and NY Counsel members trying to block that too.
I hate to say this but citizens are going to get tired of being treated like they are criminals and take this into their own hands. This could get very ugly very soon. I hope other states jump in board soon.
Yay!!! It's about time!!! First Florida now Georgia! Let's go states!!! You all need to follow. WE ALL KNOW it's wrong and so do the criminal squatters!!
I hope that North Carolina will change the law too. Now I am afraid to go anywhere on vacation and leave my home alone.
Hey Bulldog, get a family friend or relatives to house sit while you go on vacation, you worked hard, you deserve a little time off, Good luck friend.
I would think in the case of the man openly displaying a machete as recorded and reported to police was and is at the very least disturbing the peace, a nuisance, and such behavior should be included in GA MENACE law. He clearly could care less about obeying any law. What is really sad is apparently the Atlanta police don't have the backbone the Sheriffs and police forces in FL have to use some common sense. I always wonder if a police officer or an immediate family member owned that business or maybe even lived on that street, if machete man would have been treated differently?
Awesome! esteemed Gov. Kemp, please sign this bill.
It's about time. Everyone should follow suit!
take squatters to properties of the governors' and other empowered , house them in their properties, when they delay to make and sign such important laws ! the honest and hardworking innocents become the victims of the either corrupt or braindead individuals who made it to the power
We have squatters. Called the police and the police never arrested them.
Sorry..yikes
They need to do this nationwide. The squatters should not have rights to live in someone else house living for free.
it is illegal to own and carry any knife, open or concealed, with a blade longer than 12-inches in Georgia .That machete he's wielding is longer than 12 inches. Why didn't the police arrest him?
Come on Michigan Ya'll got to do this. Detroit is squatting central.
IT's another half-assed law. The police STILL can't just kick them out of the house, you have to go and file paperwork, which means hiring an attorney, then wait another week after that, then there's another whole process that can take days longer to actually remove them.
And that assumes the court actually sides correctly. If they make a mistake, it'll be months longer.
Georgia couldn't just do like Florida did and empower the police to remove squatters ON THE SPOT, based on neighborhood interviews and the owner's statements?
I would think that in most cases, a quick look at the addresses on the driver's licenses of all parties concerned should be able to strongly indicate right away to the cops who is and is not a true, legitimate resident of the home. I wonder if the cops even ask squatters for an ID at all.
@@mattr.1887 IDs can be faked, and some squatters would start doing that. But it's something that should be part of the process. The word of a couple of neighbors and the owner should be easy, and most reliable. And most landlords would eagerly come right over..
Most important thing is that the squatters get charged with a felony with at least 6 months jail time, a big fine, and they be removed and arrested on the spot. And of course, if you're an illegal Biden let in, you go to jail extra long BEFORE being kicked out of the country, because otherwise they'll be back in the country in a few weeks with new ID.
It boggles my mind why Georgia couldn't do this.
The Georgia bill still makes it too difficult to get people out ! If the owner says they don't have a lease and the squatters can't produce a lease with the owners signature they should be out immediately !! Waiting a week for a court process is still ridiculous. The squatters should be charged with breaking and entering and thrown in jail !
About time,how dare they move into your house without your permission 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏼
I can’t wait until it’s signed into law
3.4 years late.
Good. Hopefully this catches on with other states. Hopefully there is a federal law that stops this also
When did Trespassing, and breaking & entering become legal?
It's about time they put laws such as this in place.
NOW... how to protect legitimate renters from suddenly being called 'squatters' because the landlord wants to get rid of them to increase rates.
In 6 decades of my life I have never heard seen or read anything about a landlord accusing a paying tenant of being a squatter. NOW.... how about YOU?
@@bobbalcom2658 They WILL, be confident in that. These changes are badly needed but have to be approached carefully.
And once someone stops paying rent entirely they should automatically be called 'squatters'. Not just late payments, but no payments at all.
Otherwise they'll get their 'lease', pay a month, and then stop and hunker down for years.
This needs to be nation wide 👏👏👏
Come on, NY!!!!!!!!! Get on board🧐🧐
Thank you Georgia for passing this law 🎉👏
The law actually does very little. It's more theater than anything.
what are TRESPASSING laws for ?
They use a fake lease. Cops won't kick them out if the home thieves have a fake lease.
@@FracturedReality777 like MOST people, you just don't get it..................including cops who are NOT your friends. FORGET gov't
This only moves the case to a different court, so it does nothing to prosecute squatters.
Could you imagine if the residents of Georgia voted Stacy Adams in for Governor. It would had been hell.
It's about damn time!
2nd state to get it right. im not holding my breath about california passing a similar law. smh and of course its a bandit smh
Thank you for developing this reform. It is ridiculous that this has to happen, but glad that you started the ball rolling. I pray it gets passed soon.
Good to see some truly good bipartisan work is still possible.
why do you need a law for this? isn't the concept of private property enough? that's like passing a law that requires you turn your headlights on at night. duh.
Great news to hear. We need this in Washington, D.C., New York, and in Maryland.
This should be a NATIONAL law ... period
We need to change the laws in South Carolina right now.I hope our Attorney General Alan Wilson will spearhead this immediately.
Southeast setting the example.
So its okay to identify as a ninja 😅
Good for Georgia ❤And Florida ❤
FL's got it done. Come on, GA. What's the hold up on this sig with ya'lls Gov.? Sign it!
You see all of these red states updating the law, what about blue states?
The blue states are where they're all headed. Where the pu$$ie$ and pinko snowflake commies live. Think about it....they'll be with their own pu$$y loving kind.
The real winners here are the lawyers. The lawyers don't care if the bill passes. Or not. They get paid when the clients come to them. So it's a win-win for lawyers to sit back and do nothing themselves and wait for the homeowners to come in and pay them top dollar for their services.
Florida and now Georgia, slowly but surely we are learning and making the changes needed for the country.
Back in 2000, I was going to buy a home near downtown Atlanta. It was in the hood but I did not care because i was not yet 21 years old at the time. The home had people who had broken in, stole electricity and were living it. I asked what would I need to do and they told me, i would have to evict them even though they had no rights there. I gave up that dream for 20 years
How could this ever happen? Why would a tenant ever have more rights than the owner?
forget the "law," handle matters yourself....................while armed
Yep and all states need to permit the use of force to include deadly force to protect property.
@@FC-qe1wl read your state constitution, you already HAVE it
@@tooge47 Most states do not allow deadly force for protection of property.
@@FC-qe1wl if YOU are protecting YOUR property and the bad guy poses a threat to YOU, game over.
I am clapping. Thank you, Georgia! We need a national law.
They need this in every state!
The law should be no different, just because someone use the worf squatters, is called breaking and entering, traspassing, damage to property, ilegal misappropriation and is a criminal offense, they dont have to do additional laws for it
At one time in California, a property available for 'adverse posession' had to be in arrears of taxes for a proscribed period (5 years?) and the prospective occupant was required to make all unpaid taxes paid and current and pay taxes going forward as required by law.
The occupying party had to maintain the property and make such repairs and improvements as necessary to make the property safe and habitable. The lawful owner (deed holder) had 5 years from the first occupancy by the adversee to reclaim the property, had to reimburse the occupant for taxes paid and in some cases reimburse the cost of repairs or improvements which were necessary for safe habitation.
It took the Nazis in Sacramento and their 'brownshirts' in places like Los Angeles and San Francisco to tilt the court system in favor of 'squatters' who rarely maintain or repair property they take, and never pay taxes. SQUATTERS BY DEFINITION ARE INDIGENT WITHOUT RESOURCES OR FUNDS NECESSARY TO AFFECT SAFE AND PROPER OCCUPANCY OF A PROPERTY BUT THE GODDAM DEMOCRATS WANT THEM TO HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE IN SQUALID LUXURY FOR AS LONG AS THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT.
Very good , thank you god helping the right full people
Every state needs to do this.
It is wrong but crazy when Caucasians was doing it no problem everyone else catch on they criminals 😂😂😂 just crazy
Exactly
Dropped your nose, clown. 🤡
If it "passed unanimously" why does the governor need to sign it? It's not a bill that can be vetoed.
This new bill needs to pass as a Federal law. No excuses for this to happen in any state.
God bless you Georgia. May more states follow suite
This day and age I can't imagine not having video surveillance in any empty property to capture the B&E into the property so the cops can be called immediately.
Wouldn’t a stand your ground law take care of it if you can get back in your property? I say, just handle it via self defense if they attempt to break in.
Kudos to Georgia!!!❤❤❤
You should not have to go through the courts to charge someone with breaking entering and theft of services
Every state needs to do this!
Wonderful!!
I had a friend in Delaware that had this problem. He called me. I went up and squatted on the squatters and took the doors off the house they left.
