The issue I have with the events of this case is the house wasn't legally up for sale. To say...it SHOULDN'T be legal. Who sold the house? Did he sell the house knowing there was a guy living there? Was the house foreclosed on because the previous owner died and the bank actually owned the house? Did the new owners have the house inspected? Doesn't sound like it or they would have found the issue before closing. We missing information here or what? Laws gotta change to protect actual owners...not freeloaders.Ignorant people buy houses with all sorts of issues all the time. This is nothing new at all...
Should a squatter be able to stay in the house? No, that really is a dumb law but at the end of the day if you're spending that kind of money it's entirely up to you to have home inspections and aquire all the legal documentation.
I'd bet my ass these buyers knew the house was occupied. If they just bought a house completely sight unseen and did zero homework then they are totally retarded
