Quote graphic from the USF Blog post "PRIVATEVICTIONS", displaying the text: "Antisquatting companies have emerged as a still largely unexplored mechanism of housing dispossession. Hired by property owners, property managers, real-estate investors and, in some cases, large investment funds, they are used to empty buildings, recover possession outside or at the margins of formal judicial procedures and accelerate the revalorisation of housing assets."
