Have You Had a Problem with Squatters?
One of the fastest growing housing issues in California is the problem of squatters taking over vacant properties. Under California law, it can take a minimum of 30 to 60 days to evict a sophisticated squatter. AB 1513 (Fox) seeks to address this obstacle in parts of the state. Cities in the Bay Area can "opt-in". SAMCAR needs to hear your "squatter stories" to determine if San Mateo County will opt in to AB 1513.
