It is not a new owner, it is the old owner who now wants to move back in and who, if I understand correctly, once forced mom to buy the kitchen.
Furthermore, she apparently harassed mom a lot during the rental period. But she would probably like to have the kitchen.
The obviously not very high-quality kitchen is worth almost nothing after 11 years. Normally, you can be glad if the person taking over the house/apartment also takes over the kitchen without any issues.
But here it’s a bit different.
You can see what the owner would give you since she would like the kitchen back.
If that’s too little for you, you can either swallow the bitter pill and just have no further work with it. That would be the comfortable option.
In any case, make sure that the kitchen remains as agreed upon mutually. You don’t want the owner to later decide she doesn’t like the kitchen after all and make you cover the disposal costs. If she has been such a nuisance in recent years, I would get that fixed in writing.
Of course, you can also get back at her and sell the kitchen for little (although I fear you won’t get anything) or give it away (for pickup). The owner can’t do anything against that, since the kitchen belongs to mom. And the owner won’t get her kitchen.
If that’s worth it to you...
I would try to get out of this with as little work on my part as possible. Maybe the owner will pay you a recognition amount. If not, I would personally let her have it at no cost before having work with it. Mom definitely doesn’t want to keep it.
Maybe the owner will then accommodate you in another matter.
