Hey all. I’m a filmmaker currently making a feature film with one of the leads being a squatter. The story is pure advocacy for squatting, as I’m greatly passionate about it for an array of political & philosophical reasons. I wanted to talk one-on-one with those of you who practice to hear your stories and experiences, as I’m dedicated to representing this community as best I can. If you’re interested in giving an interview hmu - a special thanks will be given in the credits (No identity required, anon is fine. Interviews will not be recorded). — Thanks everyone

I am looking to become a homeowner of my “baby fathers” abandoned home so for context i lived there since I was 15/16f he’s 50m. I’m 18 now The house is getting substantial mold damage by the week because he broke the windows and the utilities cut.

He has since abandoned his entire family and probably won’t be coming back in fear of life in prison and deportation.. I doubt he is making his mortgage payments and paying taxes and the house is just sitting there. P.s he is married but separated there’s 2 names on the deed I’m assuming. Idk if that helps

How do I go about paying taxes, bills etc what are the steps. Do I start to invest in fixing it to make it live-able again. I have a baby and I’m homeless atm. It’s a great family home I just need advice thx.

I’m not currently staying in the house anymore because of the health hazard but I want to start living in it again.

Does anyone have leads in Brooklyn? Also open to joining/forming a team. Please PM me :)

hey there, hoping this is the right place to ask but i was looking for some tips and directions towards more info.

ive got some buddies in Walker county TX who are seemingly going to be evicted from their apartment and are tied up in some shit with the place theyre renting from. sounds like the goal is to squat in the apartment as long as they can, til they find jobs, another place, etc. i want them to be safe and wanna help out how i can (despite being on the other side of the country), so i was wondering if anyone had any info i could send their way about squatters rights or similar things in texas. specifically around their county since tx is so massive and some things seem to vary. any information helps, the situation is fucked and whatever they can do to hold shit down would be great. thanks!

While riding my bike around the neighbourhood I always noticed this house that's abandoned, never seen a car in the driveway since 2019. What would be the process to squat it, do you just break a window to get inside or what's the process. I don't think I have the balls to do it but I'm curious how would one go about it.

I'm looking to squat somewhere specifically in western Ireland maybe near or in Galway. But honestly anywhere in Ireland will do so if you have any resources let me know. thank you so much.

Does anyone empty, abandonded empty houses, appartements in this area ? thanks

Hi so I contacted a realtor about a house that I found and they tried to call the owner but nobody answered, the house looks in shambles and is obviously abandoned but I have no idea what the squatter rights are in New Hampshire this is in the USA. I want to have a house so my daughter can grow up somewhere nice but I don't know how to start.

Who here has experience squatting in California. How long have you done it for??

Hello everyone,

I recently moved to Chicago and am trying to navigate the local laws on squatting.

I’ve reviewed the How To Squat in Chicago guide from The Anarchist Library, but I still have some concerns about trespassing charges. The guide outlines several squatting options in Chicago:

1. Living on Unused or Public Land
2. Claiming Abandoned Private Buildings and Paying Back Taxes
3. Squatting in Foreclosed (Bank-Owned) Properties
4. Establishing Residency in Abandoned Units of Chicago Housing Authority Buildings

I’m searching for a temporary workspace (1-2 years) and need to avoid any trespassing charges or criminal records, as these could jeopardize my career prospects.

What’s the safest way to squat without risking legal issues? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

UK seaside perfect 10,000sq ft squat

contact me if you're interested. no security. used to be a house but is now classed as "commercial"

Does someone has knowledge about the squatters from Iași (Roemenië)? Because i need to get in contact with them for further help .. And eventually tips from them, ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Any signs I should look out for? I know an electrician who would potentially come over to give the house a look over. Or should it be fine to get the utility company to turn the power back on? Will make sure to have extinguishers on hand...

As for water, I have a recent water arrears bill. Hard to say how long ago building had water... Possibly 5 ears or so. Is water safe to assume is good to go? Guessing it'd have to pay the owners arrears of 400ish to do so?

In the US. He's claiming he's teaching people about how to obtain properties yes plural the adverse possession. He has an Instagram and YouTube.

I am curious about people using different jurisdictions to be able to obtain homes, I have been looking into the whole sovereignty movement how people are dropping out of paying her taxes or paying off credit card bills claiming at least. It's somewhat logical Brandon Joe Williams for example

Why not take her home and claim for you and declaration of human rights? Anyway the whole squatting an adverse possession game seems like a bit too much paperwork for me. And at least where I am squatting is highly against the norm stream of consciousness whenever I bring it up to I guess who I am realizing are Normie's.

If interested also check out Cal Washington he claims to be using ancient law which is unknown and hidden from the masses and is claiming to do very powerful things. And the basis is that or the hypothesis rather is that our society is propped up through big words and confusing paperwork which keeps the people in their normal modus operandi. Anyway just some of the angles that I'm looking at may help you guys out there good luck

Yesterday I was driving down route 19 near Gainesville, NY & passed through a little hamlet called rock glen. I noticed at least 5 abandoned buildings, two were residential and one could have been either commercial or residential. Low population, however it’s a small town so could be some nosey townsfolk around. Still wanted to put the word out though.

hello everyone , i hope this is the right page to ask but a little bit about my situation

i moved in with a “friend” back in March 2024 , i don’t have good credit so he said i wouldn’t have to sign a lease and that the landlord would be okay with it. Fast forward to middle of June 2024 he decided he wanted to live with his girlfriend and took all his things and moved out without giving me notice. he said if i wanted to keep the apartment that i need to find a new roommate and we can just continue to pay him rent until lease is up (march 2025) I ended up finding a roommate and we were paying rent every month. well just a few weeks ago i woke up to banging on my front door and answered the door to a sheriff serving eviction papers saying the “tenant on the lease owes over 5k in rent” i consulted with him and he admitted to never paying the rent my new roommate and i were paying him every month. (pocketing our money)

i decided to get in contact with the landlord and she told me that since i am not on the lease that i am trespassing and she can come kick me out right now if she wanted to. She told me i have until August 30th to get my stuff out. (3 days) and that she already rented out the apartment to someone else. i obviously cannot move out in 3 days. i don’t plan on staying here anymore but it is impossible for me to find somewhere to go in 3 days.

i have no proof i was paying rent every month, i was giving my old roommate cash because i was getting paper checks from work.

is it illegal for the landlord to rent the place out if my old roommate hasn’t had their first court hearing yet ? the evictions papers say the landlord has terminated the lease because terms of lease was violated the eviction papers just have my old roommates name it doesn’t say “all other occupants” what are my rights? i just need some insight on what to do. any advice is appreciated. thank you

Why are there people passionately defending landlords on subs where they don't belong ? I am trying to find a safe space to talk about my recent eviction and to share my experience being laid off instead of getting called a ''shameful PoS who feels entitled to cheap housing ''

I know someone who would like to get into squatting in London and I was wondering where they should start. Specifically, I was wondering if there were any places in London where they could squat? If not, how would they be able to find a safe place to squat? And where should they get advice on squatting? Thank you!
