There’s a guy, I think out west, maybe Califonia or Arizona who is a professional squatter. He makes his living by working with the owner. He signs a lease with him and moves in with first squatter and makes life hell for them till they move out.

Come on dude. You’re gonna brush this off with locks? You think these people can’t get past regular residential locks?

I get that you don’t want to ever agree with some of these posters, but stop using easily laughable ways to do it.

Why would you not lock your front door though, you don't think that's odd?

Why bother having a door with locks on it then

Lol

Who goes around trying to open doors in an apartment building? That means that the perp thinks there's a chance that somebody left their door unlocked. Why would they think people leave their doors unlocked?

It could have been "just" theft that he was going for but also could have been squatting

How did he get in the building in the first place, that's what I would be worried about

"We got an email from the board that somebody came in"
