Squatter vs. Homeowner: Title Insurance Saves the Day in North Carolina

What does North Carolina have in place to protect you, the property owner in the event of a squatter illegally taken over your home?
Before 2024, and especially before TikTok brought more attention to this issue, it wasn’t a widely discussed topic. But now, as states like Florida and Georgia take swift action to criminalize squatting, North Carolina is also working on legislative measures.
In this video, I’ll break down why having an enhanced title insurance policy can protect you in such scenarios. Squatters are criminal trespassers, plain and simple, and having the right insurance can be crucial. Unfortunately, some in our state argue that squatting should be treated as a civil matter, which I find absolutely ridiculous.
I’ll also explain the difference between standard and enhanced title insurance policies, why you should consider getting a survey on your property, and how these small steps can save you from significant legal headaches.
If you’re buying a house in Cabarrus County or anywhere in North Carolina, I’m here to help educate you and ensure your investment is protected.
For the full breakdown of all the reasons to consider title insurance, watch the full video. Your home is a valuable investment, and I want to help you protect it!

You're surprised NC super majority didn't handle it. Well open your eyes.

That was a lot of useless info pertaining to squatters. I guess you just like to hear yourself talk.
