French too, this was attempted ofc, we have documentaries about big guys employed by desperate home owners trying to kick squatters out of their main property they "lost" when going to vacations, and it doesnt work.
They get sued, it often becomes very violent, because to have the balls to seize the property of someone who s in short vacations you need to be quite violent yourself, children are always involved and well meaning outrage artists always point out the poor children being sent back to the streets etc.
I live in Hong Kong now where real estate is "a dream". You can rent anything with just a pile of cash and 30 minutes because if you dont pay rent they know the police just enter, throws everything out and put you in jail awaiting trial.
I d recommend France to try, not sure what we d truly lose.
