Vacant Home, Squatter & Trespass Law Watch

Track rules for vacant and unoccupied homes in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: state squatter removal, adverse possession and unlawful occupant law changes with the new process and timelines; city trespass and occupant enforcement policy changes; vacant property registration ordinance and fee changes in the 100 largest cities; insurer vacancy clause and vacant home policy rule changes; utility and water shutoff and reconnection rule changes for vacant homes; rental listing scam alerts in which fraudsters place occupants in vacant homes; probate and inherited property occupancy rule changes; winterization, maintenance and blight code requirements and fines; and court rulings on owner and occupant rights. Prefer state legislatures and attorneys general, sheriffs and police departments, city codes, insurer policy documents, court documents and established local reporting; ignore unverified viral stories, and never give individual legal advice. Put the state, city or rule first in the title and state the owner's next step. Use high severity for a removal law taking effect within 90 days, a registration fee of $250 or more, an insurance vacancy rule change at a top-10 carrier, or an active scam wave. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
