Here’s the Scoop

In a shocking display of injustice, a New York City property owner, Adele Andaloro, ended up in handcuffs after trying to reclaim her $1 million home from alleged squatters. Andaloro inherited the home from her parents and discovered squatters had moved in when she attempted to sell the property. Despite her rightful ownership, Andaloro was charged with unlawful eviction for changing the locks on her own home.

New York City’s absurd “squatter’s rights” laws allow a person to claim rights to a property after just 30 days of living there. These laws not only protect squatters but make it nearly impossible for rightful property owners to reclaim their homes without a lengthy and costly legal battle.

This outrageous situation highlights the urgent need for the government to ban “squatter’s rights” and protect the rights of property owners. The current laws enable criminals to steal homes from hardworking, law-abiding citizens, and the system is only getting worse. New York-based attorney Alan J. Goldberg says the city has seen a 40 to 50% increase in similar cases since the COVID pandemic began.

It’s time for the government to take action and put an end to this disgraceful practice. Property owners should not have to live in fear of losing their homes to squatters. The current laws are a slap in the face to every hardworking American who has invested in property and deserves to enjoy the fruits of their labor. The government must ban “squatter’s rights” and restore justice to property owners like Adele Andaloro.
