The sub-squatter, Kevin Ballasty, says he even paid money to a “broker.” $3,500 to Jay and $1,000 to the broker. “There’s nothing in my right mind that could lead me to believe there was going to be a problem like this.” - “We’re just waiting for the lawyer. That’s pretty much it. Like, I was scammed into living there. You know, I’m looking to leave myself.”
