Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

You think that, but squatters have a lot of rights which can make it very hard and expensive or even impossible to get rid of them...

I don't think squatting laws apply if you're actively living there.

Yeah, my understanding of squatter's rights (without checking, I can't be bothered today) is that they have to be openly living in an unoccupied dwelling and the owner has to do nothing to check on the place or have the squatter removed. It's supposed to be for abandoned properties.
