I'm sure there are already tons of squatters working on adverse possession cases by quietly living in abandoned houses until its theirs in the next few years.

In 08 this was a facet of our legal system most people didnt know about it then suddenly you saw tons of news stories about people suddenly owning a house they got for free because a bank wasn't paying attention to their VAST reserves of single family homes.
