Our Redditor finally closed on their dream home but had to deal with squatters for 46 hours. The former owners left behind a yard full of junk and redirected Amazon packages to the new address, leading to a standoff over property cleanup.
Our Redditor finally closed on their dream home, ready to move in with their fiancé. The papers were signed, and the keys were theirs… technically. But hold the happy tears and the celebratory pizza. The former owners didn’t get the memo. Instead of vacating on time, they decided to hide the keys and hang out at the house they sold—for 46 hours post-closing. That’s almost two days of squatting where they had no legal right to be.
After some advice from a lawyer friend, the new homeowners placed the packages on the porch, and the seller eventually retrieved them after being tired of waiting hours for a police escort. Crisis averted—or so they thought. I get it, everyone has a bad day now and then, but when that bad day becomes a bad week or even a bad month, you may be dealing with a sociopath or psychopath. Thesay that—not me. According to them, hostile behavior may come from pathological anger, bullying, narcissistic rage, or other such disorders.
