Asked on Apr 13th, 2021 on Contracts - Ohio
More details to this question:
I was living in a home with my mother in law and she agreed I could buy it once I was in a better financial situation. And now that I am she refuses. I never had a signed contract or anything just a face book message. Can I do anything legally to enforce our agreement or can she just refuse to sell to me?

Not likely. You would need to have a formal contract. You can look into the Statute of Frauds for some background information. If there are additional facts you would like to discuss, you may want to sit down with an attorney to review the situation in detail.
Best of luck.
