Squatters Move into House - Buyers Can't Move In - Whoa!!
Maryland couple claim STRANGERS have moved into the $379K five-bedroom house they just bought and are REFUSING to leave
A Maryland couple signed a contract with US Bank to purchase the five-bedroom home at 10716 Dragoo Place in Clinton, Maryland
on Thursday only to find people moving into the home. The wife is said to have confronted the apparent squatters, but they showed her what they said is a lease to the property and refused to leave. But real estate agent Melea King said officers with the Prince George's Police Department determined the lease was 'not correct.'
The police department, however, said the issue appears to be a 'civil matter' for the sheriff's office.
That means the police won't arrest and the new owner's must evict and that can take months
