If I were you I would not be thinking about and/or
counting on acquiring legal title to the property
through adverse possession.
Re: Tennant ownership
If a wanna-be lawyer has told you a story about "squatter's rights", keep in mind that it's only a story. The condition required for a tenant that occupies real property to become an owner of that property is the same condition required for anyone to become an owner of the property. Namely, the seller must convey title to the property to the buyer, which is generally done by having the seller sign a deed and bill of sale confirming in writing the transfer of title. Good luck.

Either buy the dwelling or marry the owner!
