Not as implausible as it sounds...

The guy in Luton whose house was stolen did get it back, but it took two years.

In this case the squatter was able to legally sell the house in his name:

>He applied to the courts for permanent possession of the home and won following an appeal, despite the judge accepting that he had committed criminal trespass. According to new reports, Mr Best has now sold the home for a huge profit.

When the courts legalize theft, it is past time for a revolution.

You should also check if the coverage depends on who does the stealing. Like, if your house is stolen into the spirit world like in Poltergeist. Clearly, this wasn't an act of God.

Ah. "The Problem of the Missing Baseball"

Note to self: don't build a steel house.

Just pour concrete over it.
