Having already discussed how to keep squatters at bay, it is important to know what to do if they do manage to get onto your land or into your property.
- Ask the police to move them on. Whilst this may not prove successful it will put the squatters on notice that you are aware of their presence and that you are serious about removing them.
- Never provide monetary or other incentives to the squatters. Our experience tells us that this only encourages them to holdout for more. What is more, if they do leave leave then do not be surprised if other squatters turn up asking for more.
- Try to ascertain names of individuals or car registration numbers. This may well protect you later should the squatters return
- In the days after eviction closely monitor the property/land to ensure that the squatters do not return.
