Squatters in the house.

[boatpi]

But three years ago we were selling it shitty house we had for years and a bad part of Las Vegas and heroin said broken in. I knew they were inside. It was the second time and I had signs posted.
And big friend and I brought our guns down our side. We found two hypes usually nonviolent on the inside. told him they got 60 seconds to get their asses out because Metro PD is coming or it may get violent around there.

We also reminded them to tell their friends that we’d be sleeping inside overnight and as soon as we hit a rattle at the door, boom boom. That was that.

But what happens when they produce a lease and won't leave? Now you are uber fucked..

You politely ask to see the paperwork and rip that shit up in their face. It will probably be hand written and they aren't smart enough to have 2 copies.
Deny they ever showed you one when you call the cops for breaking and entering. Kick-in the back door or break a window if not done already, there's you breaking and entering.

I'm thinking you might not know who the Mongols are?

Your Evening Crackhead Update:

I had two guys show up early, so they went to the house straightaway. The plan was to start doing yardwork in the front to let the squatters know that, yes.... we really did show up. So these two guys did that. I had to drop off some appliances that were in my trailer at another project before I was able to go. I had one guy with me. Three others would arrive at Dirtbag HQ at 8:30. I didn't want to arrive too early in the morning.

So the landscape guys got there first. Goodfellow came out and confronted them. My lead guy, Freddy, has been with me for 28 years. He takes no shit from anybody. His English isn't the greatest but he is the best worker I have ever met. He is like a brother from another mother. He of course told Goodfellow "that he was there to do his job. The police are coming along with the owner and a bunch more guys."

Manny and I rolled up at 8:25, Erik was there with his Pitbull, and Sebby showed up late as usual. Rolly was on time at 8:30. I brought a taser gun, with fresh AA batteries and gave Freddy a baseball bat. One fellow brought an actual firearm. It stayed locked in the truck, but it was comforting to know it was there. No need though.

The front was closed up, but the back was open. The Dentally Challenged white guy was in back on a brand new Honda Trail 125. Kinda odd, but whatever. We chatted amicably and I made it clear it was time to go. He seemed sad. LOL, but he saddled up and scooted. Three of them left when Freddy said the police were coming. They probably had outstanding warrants.

In the upstairs bedroom the door was broken but would not open. Manny was tasked with checking that area. He found a guy inside holding the door shut. LOL, Manny faked his own footsteps leaving and the guy let goof the door....Manny yanked the door open and starting yelling at the guy and his girlfriend. They grabbed their shit and left. The jig was up and they knew it.

Mr Goodfella took a few hours to pack up his minivan with the missing passenger window. We let him take his time as he was alone at this point. He was never confrontational. By about 1:15 he got in his minivan with his medium sized bull mastiff and headed out. He wanted to come back and get some stuff out of the back yard, but I told him once I locked the gates no one was gonna be allowed back in.

We boarded up all the windows and doors from the inside. Used those heavy duty gold Torx screws. Changed the deadbolt on the front door and screwed shut the windows that had bars on them. I posted a half dozen no trespassing signs up high around the house. We secured the subarea access so they can't come in under the floor. The garage door was secured. I also went to each of the neighbors, introduced myself and told them what we were doing. A couple of them came by and thanked us. That was pretty cool. I advised they should call the police if they saw anybody suspicious.

In the sheds and work shop out back there's some cool old tools. A couple large vices, a lathe, hand tools and lots of rocks. I guess the guy was a rockhound. The property is big enough to subdivide into four homes and still have large lots. We will explore the options with the owners. Fix and flip, or clean and sell as is. The house across the street is listed at $1,200,000. The yard is way overgrown. It is close to half an acre. So much potential there.

Overall, I am really pleased to get have gotten them out without too much fuss. Like C-2, I have lots of experience with foreclosures, board ups, and meeting LEOs for lockouts. We are pretty good at it by now. I know they could come back, but I think the neighbors will be on the lookout. You can't keep out someone who is really determined. Cordless tools, and a hammer.... you could pound a hole in a stucco house and reach in to unlock the door in just a few minutes. I did notice minibike guy come partway down the block on his 125, but he turned around when he saw us.

I expect we will get the contract to do a full cleanup on the yard, then rehab the house and workshops inside and out. That's probably a $100,000 - $150,000 deal for us. I will post some pics of the mess inside. The squatters kept saying they were cleaning things up. LOL They are all so delusional. The crackpipes laying around made it clear they are not thinking straight.

In the end, nobody got hurt. I really didn't even have to raise my voice. I just stated what was gonna happen, then made it happen.

It was a good day.

 

[NicPaus]

Not a property you would be interested in building out?

You got the in with the owners. If you could build 4 specs and turn them.

Glad it all went well today.

 

[Mandelon]

Certainly a thought, but it would take years to get the lot split and permits for everything.

 

[rrrr]

Happy it was done safely. There's a element of danger dealing with those dirtbags.

Mandelon, the man with a plan.

Way to execute it with a firm hand with just a tad bit of patience. No one got hurt, cops didn’t get involved and you got the derelicts out of there. Nicely done, thank you for taking us along for the ride, this was a very interesting post.

Narcan may be a wise thing to keep in the tool box for jobs like these. Never know what you're coming across.
