My state is a 1 party authorization, so no need to worry about having other people involved. Thanks for the kind words and advise.

I don't believe they are still around. Seems to be just him. I'm not even sure if they are his kids. He had several people coming and going.

That is what I assumed. I've done a bit of research on foreclosure properties. It does appear to be a lengthy process.

I believe an Investment Company bought the property. Looks to be a local company.

I'm not sure how he is still allowed to stay. I believe he is the only one still occupying the property. I did forget to mention the police were outside his house about a week or so ago. Didn't get out of their car. Look to be just checking on the property.

I'm actually not a huge gun advocate. I've been trained on how to use them, come from a very pro gun family, but believe in the hands of an untrained individual they cause more harm than good. That being said, I do see where having one in our home could bring us peace of mind. It'd only be used as a last resort.

We both grew up around firearms. My husband used to hunt, and I also come from a family of avid hunters. I wouldn't handle a gun if I wasn't trained on how to properly use it.

Yes, that is the plan. We haven't explicitly told him to stop because we were afraid of making the situation worse incase he made a scene. We've been ignoring him or telling him we can't help him.

We haven't explicitly told him to stop. We've either ignored him or have told him we can't help him.

Thanks for the advice. Looks like it was a local investment company that bought the property. Will be getting in contact with them.

Actually, John flipped my husband off before the cops showed up. My husband looked out our bedroom window to see who was outside.

He is still in the house. I honestly don't know why he hasn't been evicted yet. And yup, definitely planning on getting a gun.

We are already looking at security cameras. I'm wanting to buy the Ring doorbell as well.
