One of the types of squatting that occurs in some cases in our country is the one that implies that tenants of a floor that someone has for rent They stop paying their monthly fee.
This is popularly known as inquiokupation and is a big problem for those who experience it in their properties by stopping having an economic amount that earned month by month and for the complicated and even violent episodes that can be given between lessor and lessee.
This situation is what Domingo and Natividad experience, a 66 -year marriage from Cervelló (Barcelona), which rented the top of his house To obtain extra and freshly retired benefits, face the worst year of their lifewhich thought it was going to be the best when I finished working and being able to have that plus of money month by month.
It has been in ‘Public Espejo’ where they have announced their case and, very wrapped by their neighbors, have been explaining what happened. On the top of their home a couple lives with a child and have not paid the rent for months: «Since December they have not paid, previous months have paid half and They have us bitter, without sleep, all day thought about the same», Says Natividad.
In total, the inquiokupas They owe 7000 euros to marriagefigure that seems to continue increasing because they are not willing to leave: «I forgive them everything they mustlet them go … but there has been none, ”he said Sunday with resignation.
Inquiokupas have work, car and take their son to a private school
Being a special case in which they live in the same house although in separate floors, marriage cannot sustain the situation of having to do with their inquiokupas to enter and go out of a wide part of the house that they are not paying. «This is creating a disease, an anxiety …», Explains marriage, which has been forced to go to the psychologist to try to manage his anguish.
Nativity and Sunday have also told Susana Griso’s program that the Okupa family is not in a situation of necessity, in fact, the mother is dedicated to psychology, so they even understand their behavior: «The two work, they have a car, rent van of rent the son goes to a private school […] They are not vulnerable, it is not the case», The man declined with resignation.
Inquiokupas repeat offenders
Another of the data that the retirees have detailed is that they did not know these people before renting them the floor above their home, something that could have saved them to trust them, since they came from having been inquiokupas in another home: «In another house they did exactly the samethey spent five and a half years and for a year and a half they did not pay, ”says Domingo.
The marriage has already taken its case before justice but, for the moment, they must wait for some decision to be made. Meanwhile, they continue to live with their inquiokupas on their home and the only thing they have in their favor is The support of its neighbors They manifest themselves to the squatters and rebuke them when they see them away from home.
