Just CLOSED on this 3/2 in Sacramento!!! The seller had squatters in the house, and we were able to assist them with getting them out of the property before selling this South Land Park house to an experienced house flipper.

Quote from @Patricia Steiner:

If ever there was cause to come together and fight for better enforcement laws, the issue of squatters is it.  How the law 'protects' their 'rights' to breaking the law and stealing possession of a property is beyond me.  The thought of paying them to leave makes me ill but the $2500 spent on doing so was a cheap date considering the other options.  Crazy...


It's insane. I saw a news story this week about squatters breaking into a home while the people were home and claiming tenant rights. The police wouldn't do anything...they refuse to look at leases or deeds.....amazing world we have. But people vote for politicians that allow this so someone must like it....?
