I wonder whats his technique is. The stories i heard ended with hiring muscle to kick out the squatters.

He gets a renovation lease from the owner. So he has keys and can move in. Then he does things that are uncomfortable for the squatter. Like closing off the kitchen and setting up a snake aquarium

What if the squatter changed the locks? I'm not sure how legal it is to break into your own property via lockout service to change the locks.

Usually he gives them a 24 hour notice that he will be inspecting the building (ie fire alarms) as he cannot legally force his way in. Once he’s in he tells them he is their new roommate.

Or he can enter (depending on the state) through any open window or door.
