Making It Easier For Getting Rid of Squatters

Squatters have become a big issue for property owners and now we are seeing some changes in different areas, like FL and NY, with lawmakers looking to help introduce changes that might ease the issue.

It might seem like insanity but there are circumstances where people have come to their own property to find strangers living there and claiming that they have a lease, refusing to leave, and even sometimes calling the cops on the owners themselves. They can cause significant stress, hefty costs in damages to the property, and it could take a long time to remove them.

Squatters arguably aren't dealt with severely enough and now people are looking to change things so that they have more power to stand up for what is rightfully theirs, to evict unwanted guests from their home.

What region might we see next introduce some similar legislative changes? It's going to likely make many voters happy as property owners from across the political spectrum don't want to see strangers have more of a right to their own homes than they do themselves.
