Your agreement violates the statute of frauds. Hire an ID attorney now to sue him in equity. Apparently you do not even know if that guy is an actual owner, so search the title. Get a copy of the honored check. It might be considered a memorandum.

Hire an ID attorney to determine your State Exemption Rights, as well as how to protect SSI benefits. Once that SSI is in a bank account, it might get garnished.
