A hostile possession is the action of an occupier who does not have the true owner’s consent or permission, but possesses or occupies the real property of the true owner.
Ie. The actual owner needs to say no don’t do that and the squatter has to try to prevent and buy that I mean literally say “no don’t” or something to that effect.
Hostile does not mean you even have to be rude or anything but friendly it just means it’s against your interests and you’ve made them aware. It’s so the owner doesn’t wait the squatting period and then take action, the theory being if you didn’t know or take action until then then you’ve abandoned the property.
That’s what hostile means!
