Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

I live in a 55+ MHPark the park owner is a hitler who violates many of his own prospectus rules, arbratraly enforces his prospectus and many other things. He makes it very very diffacult to sell your home. approxmately 40/45% of the homes for sale are because the people are tired of him. He is very good at raising the lot rent, being a bully, and and having you pay for his maintenance charges. There have been several mobile homes that were sold but after the buyers met with him just walked away from the sale and never even wanted to speak again to the sellers. Now if this continously happens to me I plan to sign over the home to him after I rip out all the improvements I have made.Since I am not filling any type of claim what so evev and I own it 100% what type of recourse if any can happen?

It depends on the terms of your contract with him. read it carefully.

You can damage your own property at will. However, I suggest you have a lawyer look at your contract and the HOA rules (I assume you rent the lot). What you are proposing could be within the contract/rules, but only someone who has carefully read the rules would say for sure. For example, you probably can't start throwing appliances out the front door. Also, he does not need to accept your quit claim of the mobile home, so proceed with caution in damaging the property rather than trying to sell it.
