The mother in law must have signed something to allow for a house to be built on her property. The city or county would not give an occupancy permit without her signing over permission to build. Worst case scenario is you pay for the land only. Her moving costs and new house is not your responsibility. Maybe you could ask a judge to partition the entire house and land and then you buy her out for the land share.

Other than manufactured homes, which themselves are NOT "real estate", a "home" is NOT titled seperately from the land. Title to the land determines ownership to a home built upon it, unless there is some sort of long term land lease protecting your investment in the home that was built there.
