The landlord is a building contractor who in 1975 was building and selling homes in Warwick in a development called Buttonwoods Estates. The lease and sales agreement concerned a new home which was situated at 70 Larson Drive. The 1-year lease called for a total annual rental of $3,300 payable in monthly installments of $275. Under the terms of the lease, the tenants were to take possession on March 10, after making a preoccupancy payment of $1,000 which consisted of the rent for the first and the last months of the lease, plus an additional $450 “security deposit.” The sales agreement called for a $1,000 deposit on a selling price of $36,900 with the tenants to take title sometime within the ensuing year. This agreement was signed by the tenants and by a “Raymond R. Beaufort.” Sometime after the sales agreement was signed, the words “R.A. Beaufort & Sons, Inc. (Vice President)” were added to Raymond’s signature.
