They told Hall that the sale of the house was a civil matter and there was nothing the cops could do. And it is, in fact, as of August 4, this man’s name,” said Hall.Īnd with that, the case was closed - at least as far as the police was concerned. “We then tried to access the Land Registry documentation online to find out whose name appeared. To try and clear up the confusion, they had the arguing men check sales records.
Get out,” the man told Hall.īy that time, the police had also arrived. He told Hall that he’d bought the house from Mike Hall in July and ordered the Reverend to leave. He was very understanding and returned the property to Hall. With the builder was another man who claimed to be the house’s new owner’s father. The builder, who must’ve been extremely confused, left and soon returned. To Protect and Be Extremely UnhelpfulĪt this point, Hall understandably called the police. This is still my property,” he told the man. Hall wasn’t buying it, though - why would there be a builder in his home he hadn’t hired? The stranger who was in the house explained that he was a builder who’d been hired to work on the house. “The shock of seeing the house completely stripped of furniture all furnishings, carpet, curtains - everything - was out of the property,” recalled Hall. All of it was gone, from Hall’s furniture to his private possessions. Someone had completely emptied the house and torn up the place. I really didn’t know what he was doing there,” he said.Īnd then the worst of it hit. “I pushed him to one side and got in the property. So, he didn’t waste time on cordial greetings. Of course, in Hall’s mind, this person had no business being in his house. A strange man opened the door from the inside.
Luckily - or more like disconcertingly - a helpful soul opened the door for him. “I went to the front door, tried my key in the front door, it didn’t work,” Hall told the BBC. When Hall got to the house, he promptly walked to the front door and tried to open it. Only, when he got there, it wasn’t his house anymore. Alarmed, Hall took the time the very next morning to drive down all the way from Wales to Luton to check on his house.
