Unwanted guests or squatters can cause considerable damage to rental properties and leave landlords with a large clean-up bill.
Unoccupied rental properties can be targeted by squatters, causing major headaches for landlords.
If a squatter breaks into a vacant rental property and lives there illegally, it can potentially result in damage to the property and subsequent loss of rental income for landlords while the damage is being repaired.
We have seen situations where a squatter has broken doors and windows to force entry into a property, punched holes in walls, ripped up carpet and sprayed graffiti throughout.
