They will try that. And then they will find out it isn't that easy.

u/ColdCruise 2d ago
The eviction process is often long and requires a lot of dealing with judges and courts. After failure to pay rent for multiple months or egregious rent agreement violations, the landlord takes you to court. You will be summoned to appear and make your case. If the judge finds in favor of the landlord, then you will be given a 30 day notice to vacate the premises. You might be given longer if the judge demands it.
If you don't leave in the alloted time then they may be allowed to go in and throw your stuff away. Normally, a police officer would have to be present for this.
But this sounds like a squatter which is a different matter. A squatter has no legal right to be in the property to begin. They haven't signed a lease (or don't have a current one). So most likely, the squatter got inside the building and found an empty apartment and just started living there or it could have been someone who did not renew their lease and continued to occupy the apartment illegally.
•
u/racingsoldier 2d ago
So unfortunately squatters are normally harder to evict than actual bad tenants. Tenants already have a legally binding agreement. Whereas squatters do not. You would think all you have to do is call the cops, have the squatters trespassed and thrown out on the street with all their stuff.
The fact if the matter is that police will (generally) not act in matters of civil disagreement where two parties are claiming rights to a property. They will review the situation, make sure no one is in immediate danger, then inform both parties that it is a civil matter for the courts. Then the actual owner is on a year to 18 month ride to have the squatters legally removed. It is a disgusting and infuriating process to be involved with.

u/Aeolus_14_Umbra 2d ago
Here in Arizona, the eviction process can take 2-6 weeks, although in most cases any personal items left behind after the physical eviction must be held in storage for the tenant for two weeks. In Maricopa county alone there were 84,833 evictions in 2025, of which nearly 90 percent were for late rent payment which is typically a 10 day process from start to finish.
It’s a terrible thing to see renters thrown out of their homes and their credit ruined for being five days late on rent.
•
u/Various_Wash_4577 2d ago
Yep, here in California, if you work the loopholes, you can live rent free for about a year. There are attorneys who used to sorta advertise that. However, California put a ban on attorneys advertising things of that nature. Like billboard signs, advertising, DUI charges guaranteed reduction to reckless driving. If a squatter lives somewhere for more than two weeks or if they receive mail at the address, the owner has to go through the eviction process. First is a 3-day pay or quit notice. Then, the owner has to go to court and get an unlawful detainer order. If the tenant or squatter doesn't abide by the detainer, like telling them to vacate the premises. The judge will give an order to have the tenant physically removed by the police/sheriff. When they show up, if you're lucky they will allow you to get what you can carry in one trip. You might get the right to your belongings after a day or so, accompanied by a law enforcement officer. Not always, do they let you, in those cases where someone refused to leave. 👍😎

Neighbors got foreclosed and evicted and they left everything and walked away. Some other people in the neighborhood broke in later on that night so they too could become squatters but what they found was unusual. The people that came in after the previous owners to change the locks also lined up all of the valuables in a hallway. When the second set of neighbors broke in they put a second set of locks on the doors so the first lock changers could not get in to take the previous owners valuables. Some of the original owners things were shipped to them at their mom's place by the second set of neighbors that actually became squatters eventually and getting them out was another story.

You don't really need a court order.

Not in every state! Georgia is one of the states that lets you toss true squatters without an eviction. Doesn't work if it's a tenant who overstayed their time or something like that but if they're actually a squatter, someone who broke in and never had any right to be there in the first place, there's a separate procedure for getting them out and they have less rights than tenants. I know other states are starting to pass similar laws.

An apartment complex in OKC did this to my Daughter & her family too. They’d bought a house, but the apartment complex wouldn’t let them end their lease a month early. So, they paid their rent and were just slowly moving stuff to their house, around their work and the kids school schedules.
Then the apartment complex lied… and even had the gall to say it was my Daughter’s fault, even though she had paid the rent, had given proper written notice that they were vacating at the end of their lease and hadn’t turned their keys in. My Daughter had recorded their convos, with the management company, and then my Daughter went to the local News and surprise surprise this was NOT an unusual occurrence for the Management Company.
Ultimately, my Daughter was able to retrieve most of their sentimental belongings from the Dumpster thankfully, but thousands of dollars worth of electronics and special memorabilia were gone… probably taken by the Maintenance Staff that cleared out their apartment.

I show up the next day and I find my my door open and painters in my apartment. I go to the office and they had just closed for lunch. I think had to wait nearly an hour to find out where my stuff went, and yes it was mostly to the dumpsters except for a few items the maintenance guy decided to keep.

Oh that'll be a healthy lawsuit. Hope he's got someone in his corner to help push it through.

This happened to me one time. It was pretty crazy to come back to. They bought me all new stuff.

The manager saying "so sorry we'll get this taken care of" as an attempt to not get sued after you just raided the guys place.

He should hire people to get his stuff out of the dumpster and set up his apartment again. Then bill the landlord for it.

I had a landlord do this to my stuff. I was in the middle of moving out and still had two weeks left when I showed up and he was trashing everything. I was still staying in the house too.
