How to Deter Squatters?
Hi, All! We have recently acquired two properties that are one block in from a fairly busy street, and we’ve had multiple issues with squatters - different people every time. The police have been great about clearing the property for us when we call, but I’d like to proactively deter squatters from even coming around. We’re about to start renovations, and I’m concerned about looting destroying our progress. What are the best strategies you’ve found to discourage breaking/entering and squatting?
