A few years ago, I tried to do what I could for a friend who was couch surfing. I picked her up from jail. I took her out for meals and paid for medications. But when she was booted from a friend's, I would not let her in. Alimony was contingent on not having a roommate and I had my son with me. There were red flags in her complaints about others who were helping her and the length of time she would stay. I voiced my fears, which angered her. #squatting #adversepossession https://medium.com/the-springboard/ive-been-going-about-home-ownership-all-wrong-bf455b504493

The next step for them will be to petition to annex the parcel and add it to it's deed for the adjoining property by means of "adverse possession."

Look it up.

This is a fascinating #PlanetMoney episode, though it will tread some old ground if you're familiar with #AdversePossession. Having said that, they completely failed to address an important point: judging from the story, the protagonist's lawyer SUCKED. He absolutely should have known there was a big risk of an adverse possession claim and advised his client to try harder to settle before sueing. It's the lawyer's fault that (spoiler alert) his client lost his land.

Sleazy title for kind of astounding story—a movement that, backed by laws reclaiming idle land, occupies unused farms to provide housing, community, schooling, and vastly productive farms—e.g., the largest producer of organic rice in Latin America. When police came to displace a recent occupation, they fended them off by singing protest songs

Interesting. A Singapore house owner attempted to claim some adjacent land through the process of adverse possession (squatter's rights) by claiming that the roots of his tree had occupied the land for the required time.
