What are squatters and what do they do?

Squatter is an informal term for a trespasser. A squatter is a person who lives upon premises owned by another person, without the owner's permission, i.e., a trespasser. Squatters take up residence on property that belongs to someone else and treat the property as their own. In some jurisdictions, they can eventually acquire legal title by adverse possession as long as they meet certain legal requirements. In former times squatters were people who lived on the common land. They didn't own any land and could be forced out of where they were living at any time.


What are landlord rights when a person claims squatters rights?

It depends on your location. Squatters are treated differently in different countries.Generally, in the United States, there is no such thing as squatters rights. Squatters are trespassers. A vigilant property owner can have unauthorized dwellers arrested for trespassing. If a tenant paid rent at one time and remained on the property without paying rent, the landlord can commence an eviction proceeding. If a tenant was allowed to use property without paying rent, the owner could issue a written notice if she desires that they leave the premises. There are some unusual court cases where people have claimed adverse possesion by unauthorized use of the property for a number of years. However, that's not possible in every jurisdiction. There are no codified "squatters rights". See related question link for information about adverse possession in the U. S.You should seek the advice of an attorney if someone is claiming "squatters rights" in your property.
