Help me find a way to let my friend and her daughter live with us so she won't be homeless.?

Here is the situation. My landlord is selling the land we are on to a homeowners association. My good friend recently started staying with me because she left her abusive husband and she and her one year old are here. The landlord and the assoc say no one can live here anymore unless they own the house. And they will not let me make her part owner since she is not family. Unless I can somehow fight this she will be homeless in two weeks in October in Montana. We already have snow on the ground not to mention how wrong it is to let this happen. Is there a way to FIGHT?!

    I believe that is illegal. What if you two were domestic partners and bought a the place together - an association could never tell you that she couldn't be part owner, that would be discrimination. Do you have any friends or family that has a lawyer that might give you free info over the phone on how to best approach this? I've actually gotten a lot of legal help that way, all for free.

    Good luck Ash.
