Wonder if someone would like to pay my rent for 2 years if I'm benched

Look at it on the bright side. You do not have to worry about falling house prices.

I think you only have to provide evidence you've been in possession for at least that time, e.g. with utility bills.

Ah, I see.

Plan B is back in action then. Going to need a few guys to help me build this 50 metre high haystack around my newly found country mansion. Just got to make sure it doesn't have HM Windsor on the junk mail and I'm rocking.

So at the start of the 10-12 year period (as it currently stands), you have to notify someone you're starting the squatting? Otherwise how do you prove you complied with all the requirements for the initial 10 years?

You must be living in a posh area if you have to pay rent for a park bench.

GSOH!

Adverse possession it's called. There was some talk recently about abolishing it.

Also, it can only be claimed on private (personal or corporate) property, not Crown or (I think) Church property.

What happens if you buy a repossed flat that has an AST on it. How do you claim the rent if it were set up with the repo'd landlord?

.. Isn't there also a rule that allows you to claim the property if you manage to squat for a number of years? ..

I'm going to look into squatting rights. Saw a news item yesterday where it looks like all you have to do is put a notice on the front door!

Sod paying rent, or mortgage, there's supposedly a million empty houses out there.

I'm going to find one in the country and build a giant haystack around it. That guy that got caught dodging the planning permission was taking the wrong approach.

Remember this? Link

Mortgage payers want the governement to be deferred , or put on hold , for two years.
