context: tl;dr the actual owners of the house decided to move back to Japan and let the tenant live there rent free in exchange for him being responsible for the upkeep. The owners now want to sell the house, tenant is trying to buy it for nothing by claiming he spent over a million dollars repairing it. The invoices appear to be fake. Court rules tenant has no right to the house and has to leave.

  Doesnt sound very 'onion-y' to me, its just a wierd landlord tenant dispute. >
  
  Not very oniony...
