Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

BX is considered a lessee in good faith because the improvements were made during the lease period with the presumption that the lessee believed they had the right to do so. Therefore, upon expiration of the lease, X has the right to remove the improvements, provided it does not cause damage to the property. If removal is not possible without damage, then the lessor may opt to compensate or allow the improvements to remain.
