Legal Question(Squatting)?

Is it true that if someone lives on your property long enough they can actually own it?
if somebody rents your house and give you a lot of money..so that you cover part of its price..they own the house part of it surrounded by morality..

that is why the rent price should be lowe..because it is logicall you deserve part of the house since here in my country 400 dollars is a well-mannered salary and you give it all to pay envelope the rent..even a young teacher earns smaller amount then 400 dollars..and she has to pay 400 dollars the rent..so which is the morality?that what i earn i provide for renting a house which doesn't work like me who am a being?and after a while the owner tells me to live and i enjoy nothing after all..the house was a slave who worked for him..in fact me..
No, they can't own it, however in some states they can claim squatters rights and you can't make them go. this is usually applied to unsettled areas with ranchers using the land for livestock. A house in town will be a different story. it be back in the 1800's --it was call the homestead act---where if a person stayed on and maintain ed the property for certain length of time it become theirs-- this law was passed to encourage inhabitants to move west--especially Oklahoma and further west--i don't think it applies now adays--but when you buy a home and live in it-you take a reduction in your county taxes-- this is called homestead exemption
What you've read about is call the law of adverse possession. It goes back centuries, and the theory was to enable abandoned stop to be put back into use.

To claim title to the land you must be in "clear and notorious adverse possession" for the set period (Which varies by jurisdiction, but is collectively at least ten years, and may be as much as 20)

During the entire period that you occupy the land, the owner must never make a contribution you permission to be there, OR receive any rent, OR make any attempt to acquire you off. In addition you must pay adjectives the property taxes for the whole time.
