1. If, before filing the pre-emption claim, the purchaser enhances the pre-empted property, or constructs buildings thereon or plants trees therein, the pre-emptor shall have the option either to abandon the pre-emption or to acquire the property for its price together with the value of the additions or what has been constructed or planted. 2. If the addition, construction, or planting takes place after the filing of the pre-emption claim, the pre-emptor may abandon the pre-emption, request removal if feasible, or may retain it upon payment of the value of the addition or of what has been constructed or planted, as if removed. 3. If the property in which the right of pre-emption exists is diminished without any act on the part of the purchaser, or by their act for a beneficial purpose, the pre-emptor may take it for the full price, and they shall have no claim in respect of the diminution, or they may leave it to the purchaser. If it is diminished by an act for no benefit, the value of the diminution shall be deducted from the price for the pre-emptor.
