Squatters in Calif.
My little brother passed away. He outright owned his house and I have petitioned for
probate because he had no living trust. will or power of attorneys. He had a pension from the VA and some social security coming in. That money kept the lights on and fed five squatters that landed at his house over the years. Well, now I just learned that because he never had a rental agreement with these moochers, I can't get them to relocate. Man.... I have to serve all of them 30 day eviction papers and go to court. I am not going to stop the utility payments because they are after all people that need a shower once in a while but this is crazy. One of them actually told me tonight that there is no Landlord anymore because my brother is gone and I am not in any position to tell her to leave. She hasn't lived in the house for three months but as soon as my little brother passed, she suddenly became a tenant. Just venting. I will get it done through the legal system. Pain in the ass. |

Sorry to hear. California and Oregon both seem to be on the path to grant renters more rights than the property owners...

Yeah Paul, state wide rent control is a fookup deal. Our dumb ass gov Newsome, will sign statewide rent control that's going to throw a monkey wrench in a lot of owner's plans. We voted against it less then a year ago and we still get it in the ass from the strong arm
Rapewta, Here's the rub, you can't get them out, at least in CA, because they now have renter's right even if they aren't paying you a goddamndime. That's right, they have more right then owners. I suggest you get a lawyer to help with eviction. You just might have to pay to get em' out, slip them 1500-2000.00 and see if they leave. Single family home? If so, then that's not subjected to rent control. Where in CA is this? |

I think there's talk of rent control in Phoenix. Rent control is coming your way gents., strap on your seat belts and go for a ride. What the hell happen to free market? If there's to be rent control, then lets have price control on anything we buy to repair these apts. Go beck to market rate on materials and labor for when the units were rented with a typical 3 % increase for inflation. I am good with that.

I totally do not get how squatters can have ANY rights to a dwelling when you can prove they aren't supposed to be there. It happened to a good friend of mine here in Ga. She got married and moved in with her new husband and they were going to sell her house in a few weeks after they got settled etc, and when she came back from her honeymoon and went over to the house @ 2-3 weeks later, there was a family living in it. She called the police and they came out and said there was NOTHING she could do to get them out until she got a court date. Ridiculous. How does that even happen?
I told her to move back in and then wake up in the middle of night and "shoot the intruders!" .. (sort of kidding)

You may keep paying the light bill, but PG&E will dictate when the lights are actually on.

My uncle owned a fair amount of property, some residential rentals back in the day. He had one family that would not leave. He had his handy man remove the front , rear doors and removed all the windows, turned off electricity.
They were gone in a few days. No way in h3ll I'd let anyone stay that did not have a rental contract and were vetted.

I would wait until the squatters were out for the day.
Burn the damn house down.

First, STOP PAYING FOR THE UTILITIES!!!!!!!
They are actively stealing from you and if it is your intent to be an enabler, just sign over the deed to them and be done with it. |

My brother's home is a "single family home."
In Calif. you can't just shut off water and garbage collection. Squatter rights. I petitioned for a probate hearing yesterday. I now have a Law Firm on retainer and will call them today. I think it goes like this: 3 day Notice to Quit posted and mailed to the squatter. If they don't leave then a 30 day eviction notice. Unlawful retainer. Get a hearing date and explain to the judge why the eviction. If I win the case then law enforcement will physically remove the mooch. It takes time, so I can't get too riled up and make mistakes. Hard to understand why a squatter has so many rights. |
