Video Summary
I live on my mom’s property and she died. Do I have squatter’s rights? The answer is no. You do not have any squatter’s rights. As far as living on her property, her estate would need to be probated, in order to determine who she left the property to, and whoever is the owner. And hopefully if you are an owner, you do have the beneficiary so that you would wind up being the owner of her property. As an owner, you have a right to maintain possession of the property, as non exclusive. So, if however, you are not a beneficiary and it passes to someone other than yourself or to other parties, other than yourself, they would have a right to have you removed. That’s called an unlawful detainer action, which is a, basically an eviction of someone who is not a tenant. And so you do not have any squats rights, not that squatters have any rights, to stay on the property. If you’re not, the owner of the property, or have rented the property. If you have any questions, give me a call. Its 727) 847-2288.
