In one case a woman's Queens home was taken over by a man and a group of subletting squatters. Police arrested the homeowner when she tried to change the locks in order to keep them out.
New York lawmakers have voted to change a property law stating that "a tenant should not include a squatter."This comes after a homeowner was put in handcuffs for changing the locks to keep a squatter from subletting her home. A portion of New York's 2024 state budget agreement, signed into law by New York Governor Kathy Hochul Monday, excludes squatters from tenant protection under state law.
The optics of a homeowner being taken from their own home in handcuffs. That picture is what inspired Albany to act earlier today," Real estate lawyer Romer said.Rodriguez, 35, pleaded not guilty to second-degree burglary, fourth-degree grand larceny, fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property, second-degree criminal trespass and fourth-degree criminal mischief last week, according to the Queens District Attorney's office.
