Just because a house is in foreclosure, doesn’t mean it’s free game! A single mother in Florida was arrested Friday after she rented out her neighbor’s foreclosed home on Craigslist! Nathalie Heil, 30, had collected more than $13,000 in rent since mid-June last year before the property's owners realized what was going on. Heil claimed she believed she owned the house as the result of a law in Florida which allows squatters to take ownership of a home if they’ve been staying in it for seven years. She said the property was abandoned more than six years ago and she assumed she owned it immediately after filing “adverse possession” papers with the courts. But police found no record of such paperwork. Heil is facing charges of grand theft and fraud.
