Nguyen-Stevenson claimed
that he had actually bought the house, and wasn't renting, and has
filed a breach of contract suit to prove so, People reports.
Tyga
reportedly started the purchase of the house, which he shared with
former partner Blac Chyna and their son King Cairo, a year ago,
according to TMZ.
In
the lawsuit, Tyga claims he put a down payment of $200,000 on the
Calabasas house 12 months ago, with the landlord allegedly telling him
he could move in during escrow, without paying the $25k a month rent on
the property.

According
to the rapper's suit, the escrow was due to close months ago but the
seller of the property didn't provide Tyga's bank with all the necessary
information that would allow the loan to be processed, leading to a
lengthy delay.
There
was thought to be no written agreement in place between Tyga and his
landlord though regarding the payment of rent during the escrow
period.
The star's lawyer, Lee Hutton told TMZ: 'We evidently live in a world where a man's word is no longer your bond.'
According
to a previous report by TMZ, if the Rack City hitmaker did not pay
money by July 1, the landlord was set to go for eviction and charge
$833.33 a day in rent.
As Blac Chyna also lived in the house with the rapper, she was also named as a defendant.
MailOnline have contacted a representative for Tyga.
