I see a lot of people here justifying the occupation of bank-owned homes as if that is okay. I hope you never have to experience living next to squatters, as among other things, you might end up paying for their exaggeratedly high utilities.

I've lived next to squatters (having them above me, below and sharing a wall), what exactly am I suppose to have hated about it? They were never troublesome, but of course I can understand in some other cases they were, but we have laws for those things already.

If they were being loud, you can call the police and complain. If they're ruining stuff on your side, you can also call the police. I'm not sure in what way they could bother me, and I wouldn't have the law on my side if I chose to act on it.

Behind a bank-owned home there's always a tragedy, never a trickery.
