The squatter at this home has a car, uses the property owner’s water to wash his car, he’s using his electricity to run a business out of a van, to power his TV in the vehicle

The homeless man squatting doing all this can’t be removed

This is a real and frustrating problem in New York

After 30 days of occupancy, squatters could claim tenant-like rights even without permission or a lease

To remove these people, Police often still demand court orders to avoid liability or mistakes. Court delays are common

Here’s the crazy part

Self-help is illegal. Owners cannot change locks, shut off utilities like water and electricity, or remove belongings without risking arrest for “unlawful eviction”

They're still there because you allow it.

Mask on, Crack heads, Mask off! It's quick and easy. And you can't evict a trespasser anyway.

This issue should be dealt with by extreme force!
