I hope you were not defrauded. If the purchase was agreed to, then you can file a lawsuit for specific performance. Since the amount is too low, you can go to small claims court. Watch judge Judy first, so you will know what to bring to court, Best of luck,

First, Check your county’s Covid Rent Ordinance on Rents. I believe your LL May be violating this Ordinance. At any rate, he will not be able to file a lawsuit until the ordinance is revoked. Just pay your rent and keep all notices and messages, you may be able to sue him later for violating... View More
