Squatter Legislation

I'm not sure how many of you have been following the news about the couple in Tacoma with a squatter, but the issue is finally getting some media attention.  I'm not sure how much it will help, but there is a change.org petition started if you want to sign it.  Petition

I've also begun reaching out to my State Representative's about creating legislation that would require homes on blind auction sites (such as auction.com) to have at a minimum a structural inspection completed and posted with the paperwork.  It's a life-safety issue.  I know that MEP is also, but structural is the first step.  If you want more info on that and what I said so you can start reaching out to your representatives, PM me and I'll send you what I sent them.
