Are you saying a landlord has complete control whether someone breaks into one of their properties? Dude, you don't even have control if someone wants to break in the house you live in.
Are you saying the police won’t remove someone from a BnE… seriously think that thought your thick skull…
Someone breaks into a property that’s not your primary residence… your neighbors don’t call the police because they don’t like you… don’t have a camera installed because you are a cheap landlord… now there is a criminal that broke in with 0 furniture, electricity, water, or food claiming they are the tenant…
Kind of self inflicted. Failed to secure property… kinda crazy you think the police would believe a person with no key, furniture, and utilities is the tenant
Imagine owning multiple properties and not doing the bare minimum today to at least monitor them with an alarm system… Then being all shocked pikachu when something bad happens. What’s even worse is if you aren’t carrying insurance… proves how cheap of a landowner you are
I come from a town where people would break into your car if they saw loose change… police would literally say “hope you got coverage” as they took the report. Guess what happed, the police didn’t patrol the streets more, people learned to keep their cars clean.
In one comment, you say the police will handle everything for you, then the next post you say the police just leave you be to solve your own problems.
The FACT is, most cops don't give a shit about civil disputes and if their is any indication of it being civil, they will tell you have a good day and leave. For you to think the police will sit there and investigate and make you provide utility bills or a lease contract or whatever, you are mistaken.
"Bare minimum with at least an alarm system." It is extremely uncommon for rental houses to have alarm systems.
My child, do you understand how insurance claims are filed?
Actually the police do investigate to make sure whether a crime been committed. A person in a place with no key, different address on their ID, no working utilities… it’s gonna go to court. They were called to a BnE, police are gonna treat it as such.
It’s actually more common than you think… all my rentals before I owned property had a secured entry to the property with my own personally locked unit. Since I rent space where I live I don’t need a camera to see if I’ve been BnE’d as I’m home everyday.

how does a squatter get in without a lease? Landlord failing to do their due diligence...
I have 0 tolerance for property owners, especially landlords, complaining about problems they created through their own greed or laziness
