In the USA, can you lose your home even after it is 100% paid off? (lemmy.ml)

Let’s say that you buy a home in cash and have 100% paid off. Could you still lose it somehow?

I've heard British people with funny hats can just take your home in the US, but if you own guns (most do) you can just shoot at them until they go away.

Do they have to be wearing funny hats? Asking for a friend

Of course not. You can shoot pretty much anybody in the US.

That's not true. Only cops get that right.
