My husbands father bought an extra house as an emergency place to live years ago. In that time, my husband has lived there off and on and also my sister in law. No rent was charged, only the understanding that if you lived here, you had to help fix the place up. Last October, my husband's father died. Everything he had went to his wife and she decided to leave the house as is for his kids. When he died, my sis in law was living there. She did do some improvements on the house while living there. Eventually, my sis in law got back on her feet and bought a house and moved out. Shortly there after, my husband and I moved in. We are hoping to do the same. However, his sis in law says we owe her for the improvements she did on the house. She wanted $100 a month for it. I told my husband no, don't pay her because she doesn't own the house. She has even come in and taken out most of the improvements she has done on it. Am I wrong? I don't think we should pay her a penny. What do you think?
