HOD anti-squat housing explained

Referral and eligibility

The 28-day risk

Anti-squat occupancy can last days or years, but duration is never guaranteed. HOD states a 28-day notice period, so applicants need flexibility, limited possessions and a credible fallback address.

Costs are property-specific

Anti-squat versus temporary rent
