we had some people living with us for 1 year and they didnt pay any rent. We were behind on our property taxes and they ended up paying 1100 towards the back taxes. Now they want the money back. my question is, do we pay them back, no written statements were ever signed, Or do we consider that money back rent that was owed to us? Does he have a legal leg to stand on should this go that far?
Really it will depend on what agreement you had. You state there was nothing in writing so it would be up to a court to determine who is telling the true about what your verbal agreement was.
