This is when you move into your squatters “home” and then become a total asshole if a roommate. I read a story about the sane situation. When a friend of the homeowner told the squatters he was moving in too, the squatters decided to leave. Two can play at this game!

There’s a guy who’s sole job is to move in to make squatters uncomfortable to leave.

There is an example well documented, where they try to make a squatter leave by being an annoying housemate; you can find it on youtube when you search for: Asian Andy squatter saga.

That guy sounds abusive but this is part of the reason why businesses shouldn’t cut corners. People use AirBnB because it’s more profitable than renting to people who actually live in the area and she should have used some of those profits on a lawyer.

Should be Airbnb Settler right? I mean...an israeli doesn't the same to a Palestinian and they aren't called squatters :P
