Roger owned a piece of land.He moved a mobile home onto this land.The home was set on a concrete slab.The wheels and axles were removed from it, and it was tied down to the slab with wires.The home was hooked up to the city sewer and power lines.The value of the mobile home was about $10,000 and the value of the land was about $5,000. The land had 3 beautiful 100-year old oak trees and a crop of vegetables.The mobile home had a refrigerator, hardwood floors, a built-in china cabinet, and ceiling fans.

Later, Roger sold the land to Joy for $15,000.Roger now claims that the mobile home is personal property that does not go with the land.He also claims that the oak trees and crops (both harvested and nonharvested) were not included.He also states that if the mobile home was included, he has the right to the refrigerator, hardwood floors, china cabinet and ceiling fans.
