I originally agreed to a vague, written lease option agreement with option to buy mh located on my real property to family friend. Unfortunately, he never pd mh off through leinholder nor fullfield the terms of the lot rent of 45 dollars monthly, in addition to maintaining the lawn. Served eviction in person to girlfriend but original lessee no longer resides in mh. However, have tried to get new agreement signed on numerous occasions but tenants have refused.They have used heavy equp. to remove over 20 plus full grown trees from my property without my consent nor knowledge. How should I proceed. Alabama?
A: If there was an agreement in place that he would pay rent your appropriate remedy is eviction. If there is no rental agreement, then you would file an ejectment. That would be your appropriate remedy You need to hire a lawyer to help you with this. THese kind of home-made agreements often fall apart just like this.
