Squatter

We’re dealing with a squatter situation in New York.

The heirs mentioned that the occupant was the decedent’s best friend, but he hasn’t been maintaining the property, and now there’s a foreclosure suit pending.

I tried reaching out to him directly. When that didn’t work, I contacted his kids. Then I went another level down—relatives and associates.

Only one relative, a half‑brother, responded, and he basically said he doesn’t care what happens to him. lol

My goal is simply to get a conversation started—nothing heavy like a demand letter. Ideally, we’d offer a cash‑for‑keys arrangement instead of going through a legal eviction.

As I continue following up on all provided contacts, I wanted to ask the group: What would you say in a text or voicemail to get his attention?
