He's fxxked. He'll never sell that house with the bums living on (or next to) the property. The bums will take over the house the instant he and his family move out. If not sooner.
Carl Drega was also from New Hampshire. Wikipedia paints him as a villain. I have a slightly different opinion.
Our current state of anarcho-tyranny will end badly.
I wonder which town or county official wants that house.

Yes, indeed. The property is worth something. But he’ll be lucky to get 20% of what the house is worth. And that’s because the day after he moves, there will be new “tenants” in the house, as you noted.

By golly, I never thought of that. But you might be on to something there. If the guy does move (and he should) it would be interesting to see who owns the property a year later.
Side story: A old guy I know owned a house on a river. The house was in bad shape, but the property was prime. The old guy fell behind on his taxes. The town came down on him like a ton of bricks. Sheriff’s sale, and all that. A relative of the mayor now owns the property.
So, yeah. It sure does happen.
