What if we all just move into airbnbs and refuse to leave
I'll be going in front of a venture capital roundtable tomorrow with my idea for Squatter.home, a web site where you can find unoccupied properties and occupy them for a VERY reasonable finder's fee.
There is something like this in London, England. I can't remember the name right now though.
That's why police exist.
Sounds like someone who's never called the police for something like this. More likely than not they'll tell you it's a civil matter and they can't do anything without a court order.
Outside america where police violence usually involve deadly shooting and they usually happy to do so, it takes more than police to evict someone.
I thought states also required a crane as well every so often?
Not exactly an eviction, but they might just take the home down around you. https://wwmt.com/news/local/kalamazoo-landlord-looks-for-answers-after-home-gets-demolished-in-standoff
What're they gonna do if you refuse to leave tho? Stay there until you comply?? No sir, I cannot be forced to quarter troops!!
(This is a joke. I'm aware they'd just use force lol.)
