  • #48 Squatter Nightmare: 9-Month Battle to Reclaim A Property
    Jun 6 2025

    Send us a text

    A real-life nightmare about dealing with squatters in Los Angeles County. Rob walks us through a shocking timeline: from the illegal break-in to a dramatic sheriff lockout, and the outrageous moment the squatters came back the same day.

    This isn’t just a story—it’s a wake-up call. Rob’s experience exposes the broken system that allows squatters to exploit utility loopholes, avoid eviction, and destroy the value of good housing. You’ll hear how this has affected Rob’s ability to sell his property, what he’s learned, and why this could happen to anyone.

    If you’re a landlord, investor, or just someone who cares about protecting property rights, this is a must-listen.
