Getting rid of squatters by becoming a renter??

[Simon Rivas]

I saw an interesting youtube video and wanted everyones thoughts. Pretty much a man had squatters in his dead mother's house, which he couldn't sell because of it. He decided to have the mother give him a lease to rent, waited until everyone left, changed the locks, and said good buy. Since renters have more rights than squatters this supposedly worked. I'm a little skeptical of this, so what does every here think?
