Squatter Removal in New York
Why New York Is a
Difficult State for Property Owners
New York is widely considered the most difficult state in the country for squatter removal. NYC housing courts are chronically backlogged, with formal eviction taking 6–18 months. New York's strong tenant protection laws — originally designed to protect renters — are frequently exploited by squatters. The state requires 10 years for adverse possession, but the real danger is the court timeline. Upstate New York has seen a surge in squatter incidents in vacant rural properties. Property owners in New York City face additional layers of housing court bureaucracy that can extend removal timelines even further.
