Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia

Tenants and Landlords

We have done a lot of work to the rental that we were living in because the lanlord led us to believe that we would eventually buy the house. Then the landlord evicts us for no reason and wont let us buy the house. Can we sue for the money to cover the repairs and remodeling that we have done to the rental property?
