[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 633954, member: 17269"] Sweetmama, I am sorry you are in this terrible position. I don't know what the laws are for evicting people, so I can't offer practical advice there. I can say that unless you take some sort of action the situation won't change, so go ahead and take the action and then deal with the consequences and move on. Most people can't really wreck a house. They can make it filthy, or damage some stuff, but they can't make it unfixable. If he goes there...you'll have him arrested, you'll fix the damage, you'll sell the house, you'll figure it out. I like to try to see what the worst case scenario is (in my own life and decisions) and then figure out how I will deal with THAT should it happen. Usually that helps me with the antsy, with the panic. MWM is right that you need to make some calls and find out what your rights and best course of action are. Now here is what I really wanted to say: this part of your post jumped out at me. What??? In what way are you forcing him into homelessness? You are only doing with your property, with your asset, what you need to do. You are not stopping him from finding another home. He can get a job and pay for a room, apply for disability and get a room, get a job that provides housing, sleep on a friends floor, couch, porch, or garage, go to a shelter, get on a housing list....I don't know his situation well enough to know (what IS his situation anyway? why is he squatting in your empty property?), but I do know that neither you nor anyone else is forcing him into homelessness. Good luck. I hope you can start to move forward. Keep posting..we are never hear to judge, only to listen, share our experiences, be a sounding board. Echolette [/QUOTE]
