The squatters "bought it" from a fony salesman for $5K so it has to be treated as a civil issue and not a criminal trespass issue. They sound like they are illegal aliens and they have some kind of "Christian" legal foundation with a lawyer while the real owners can't afford a lawyer. I think the legal foundations are just another tool to help illegals no matter what. I am so mad after reading this I could spit!

In the good old days, this type of problem would have been readily, conclusively, and inexpensively solved by good neighbors with baseball equipment; and no one, including the police, would see anything.

I think this is called ‘theft’. Or if nothing else, ‘criminal trespass’...In any case, don’t YOU try it!

No mention of going after the phony who sold the property, which is a criminal matter.
That says to me: Get ready for a lot more of these cases.

” They are also dealing with their mortgage company, because they are about $20,000 behind on their house payments, the last of which was made in June 2011.”

What’s the big deal as at this point in time the house will be foreclosed.

Pay up the 20k you owe the bank and maybe someone will give a damn about your plight.

Oh yeah, great plan. You can do the same to the next occupiers when you get out of prison.

Does anybody know...is a Title Committment, and Title Insurance required, to purchase real estate in Colorado?

I just don’t buy the ‘phony salesman’ part of this.

What about the deed chain of ownership? Does Colorado use the recording system for deeds?

This is just stupid.

I file this under Home Invasion. My solution for home invasion would be a couple bursts of 5.56 followed by some .44 magnum if they are still moving.

And if a “Christian” law firm is aiding the criminals, then that firm is not “Christian”

There’s a little problem that’s downplayed in the article. The “owners” are $20,000 behind in mortgage payments on the house and left the state when they were 2 payments behind. I’d be very interested in learning the legal ramifications of that and how it plays in in regard to the “squatters.” Any real estate attorneys around here?

I’m with you lacrew.

Doesn’t transfer of real property require the signature and presence of either an attorney or title company in every state - all 57 of them.

These bonehead occupiers are lying. Send in the dogs. Shut off the power. etc.

Under your theory, the banker who the Donovan family owes $20,000.00 can go and shoot the Donvans and their children and take back the bank’s property.

oh adverse possession is claimed - after 8 months. LOL not a chance.

a realtor defrauded the squatters - or so they'll claim.

my bet is there was no realtor and was no 5k.

"People who are even on an extended vacation need to be aware of this situation because once someone illegally occupies your home, you can't just have the cops arrest them," because they need to be caught in the act of breaking in and entering, Donovan said.

I'll tell you one thing - if i come home some day and someone is in my house i will shoot them pretty quickly.

After foreclosure, that's EXACTLY what would happen. The people with the guns would be wearing Sheriff's uniforms.

Do you think the new owners are paying the mortgage? I'd be surprised if they're paying property taxes.

That's just wrong. The house had not been forclosed on. Not until then would the owners be trespassing - in spite of their debt.

Well, let's see. Are they INSIDE the dwelling?
