The only problem with these companies is that they charge a large fee to negotiate the sqatters leaving and then apperently quickly move more sqatters in so that you have to start all over again.

The only way is the legal way!

I have to say that this post was originally about illegal squatters in Spanish community properties and has now gone completely off course by quoting English laws and websites so I would ask that it is brought back to the original content of the post.

Thanking all in advance.

After going to make the denuncia it would appear that no amount of protesting about these people being illegal makes any difference to the authorities.

The contract is false ,the method of entering is known to the police and Guardia Civil but they are powerless to do anything as regards moving them out and it is the responsibility of the property owner to issue proceedings to take back possession.

I am sure that the lawyers are pleased with this method as it gives them another income.

It is about time that the authorities stepped upto the plate and came down on the side of the people that pay the taxes which in turn pay their salaries and stop this from happening.

This is a beutiful country but this is not a good advert for it.

ads posts are very true and outline the problem that is a blight on the Spanish authorities who seem to not care for the people that invest in the country.

Went to Guardi Civil today to make a denuncia and was told exactly that about the (Russian Agent) and so it is a bogus document so we have to take all the legal actions to get them out which could take some time.

I am the President of a community and we are suffering from an influx of illegal squatters.

The modus operandi is as follows.

They come during the night and drill out the locks and put in new locks and then on a Friday evening they move in with a false contract  provided by a  (Russian) agent who no doubt takes a fee.

The police and guardia civil do nothing as they say that they have a legal contract and no amount of explaining that the contract cannot be legal as it is not from the owner makes any difference and the legal owner nust make a denuncia to the guardia civil and then take legal action.

As this is done on a Friday evening it makes it very difficult to contact any one and so this is to their advantage.

They bypass the electricity and water and the utility companies when pushed come out and disconnect but a few hours later the sqatters have managed to restore them.

It would seem that we are powerless to stop this happening as the law is on their side and this is not a good thing for our community and apperently this is happening in other communities.

I fail to understand why the authorities do not go after these bogus agents as they are the criminals in this scenario.

I would welcome any suggestions from any one who can give helpfull advice on any measures we can put into action.
