Question 10452 — property

Summary

Mr. Frédéric Weber alerts the Minister of the Interior to the increase in situations of squatting and illegal occupation of housing, noted in several departments. These facts concern both main residences rented by traditional lease and properties offered for seasonal rental, particularly via digital platforms. Many owners therefore find themselves faced with situations where tenants cease to pay their rent while refusing to leave the premises, or even in cases where occupants, at the end of their stay, remain illegally in the accommodation, claiming a protective status. These behaviors, in addition to the serious financial consequences they cause, fuel a strong feeling of injustice and distress, even though the legal procedures necessary for the restitution of property remain long and random. The law of July 27, 2023, known as “anti-squat”, aimed to respond to this problem by notably simplifying evictions through the prefecture and increasing the applicable criminal sanctions, but its implementation remains uneven, causing growing frustration among aggrieved owners. In a context of strong pressure on the rental stock, these illicit occupations contribute to further disruption further strengthen the housing market, particularly in areas already strongly affected by the real estate crisis. He asks what concrete measures the Government intends to take to ensure effective and rapid application of existing legislation, prevent new forms of abusive occupation and better protect owners who are victims of these practices.
