My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Ohio
My father bought a house for me and put it in his and my mom's name, as I was in the middle of a divorce. I was purchased as a "rental". For 6 years now, the mortgage payment has been direct deposited into their account, so it has never been late. I also pay $100 towards utilities.
A year ago I moved part-time to California to be near my boyfriend. I told my father I would tell him if I was moving for good when I came to visit this summer.
Upon arrival at my house last month, I find that my father has "donated" a bunch of my stuff, including small appliances, furniture and other items to Goodwill. I asked him about this and he told me that the items were "in his way" during his effort to get my house ready to sell.
I told my dad that not only was I not wanting to sell, but that I would be moving back into the house in the spring! He is upset that I am not clearing out the house of my stuff and I'm afraid that he will clear out everything himself as soon as I leave.
I had asked him for a rental agreement years ago, but he laughed in my face. I could not move out at the time because of financial reasons.
It really upsets me that he can just come in and do as he pleases. He offered to buy it for me, as my credit due to my ex is horrible and because I'm now 100% disabled.
What are my rights?
