On 16 September 1983, plaintiff filed a complaint seeking rent from defendant for occupation of her property from 1 March 1974 until 10 April 1983. Plaintiff set out two alternative theories of recovery: (1) that defendant’s husband entered into an agreement on 1 March 1974 to pay $100 per month rent and to maintain the house, and (2) whether or not there was an agreement, that plaintiff is entitled to recover from defendant the fair rental value of the property for the time she and her husband occupied it. Plaintiff requested recovery of $13,800 under the rental agreement and, in the alternative, $16,200 as the fair rental value of the property. The trial judge, sitting without a jury, dismissed plaintiffs complaint and denied recovery under any theory.
[1] We first note that the trial judge was correct in concluding that the statute of frauds prevented plaintiff from seeking to enforce the alleged oral agreement for rent. The record indicates that the alleged agreement was for an indefinite or uncertain term. Such an agreement is barred by the statute of frauds. See Davis v. Lovick, 226 N.C. 252, 255, 37 S.E. 2d 680, 681 (1946), overruled on other grounds, Kent v. Humphries, 303 N.C. 675, 281 S.E. 2d 43 (1981). The trial judge therefore correctly dismissed plaintiffs first cause of action.
[2] The next question we face is whether, and to what extent, plaintiffs second cause of action is barred by the statute of limitations. The trial judge concluded that plaintiffs action was barred so far as it sought rentals for occupation of the land prior to 16 September 1980.
*567Plaintiffs second cause of action seeks to recover the “fair rental value” of her property from 1 March 1974 through 10 April 1983, the period dating from the purported agreement with Mr. Mock to pay rent through Mr. Mock’s death. Although not denominated as such in the complaint, this cause of action appears to be based on, and we will treat it as based on, G.S. 42-4, which enables a property owner to recover “reasonable compensation” for occupation of her property. Since the action is brought upon a statutory liability, it is subject to the three-year period provided for in G.S. 1-52(2). Although we have found no authority on this point, we believe that a cause, of action for rent under this section must accrue continually, for each day the property is occupied. Under G.S. 1-52(2), then, plaintiff can sue for “reasonable compensation” under G.S. 42-4 for the Mocks’ use of her property during the period three years prior to the filing of her cause of action.
G.S. 1-52(2), however, is not the only statute affecting the period of limitations in this case. Plaintiff correctly notes that G.S. 28A-19-3(c) affects the period, because defendant was sued not only in her individual capacity, but also as administratrix of her husband’s estate.
Under G.S. 28A-19-3(c):
No claim shall be barred by the statute of limitations which was not barred thereby at the time of the decedent’s death, if the claim is presented within the period provided by subsection (a) hereof.
Defendant’s husband died 10 April 1983. Plaintiff filed suit on 16 September 1983. The plaintiff alleged in her complaint that she complied with Chapter 28A in presenting her claim to defendant. Defendant responded in her answer that “plaintiff has made demand upon defendant administratrix for payment of money and that defendants [sic] have refused to pay.” Defendant failed to deny plaintiffs argument as to G.S. 28A-19-3(c) on appeal. We are satisfied that pláintiff presented her claim to defendant adminis-tratrix within the statutory period and that she may therefore invoke G.S. 28A-19-3(c).
Plaintiffs claim for reasonable compensation against the defendant as administratrix, which was not barred by G.S. 1-52(2) as of the decedent’s death, 10 April 1983, therefore survives. *568Plaintiff may sue the defendant administratrix for rents not paid in the period of three years prior to 10 April 1983, i.e., back to 10 April 1980. The trial judge’s conclusion that the statute of limitations bars plaintiffs action for all rents due before 16 September 1980 is incorrect as to the defendant administratrix.
Plaintiffs argument as to G.S. 1-31 applies to the accrual of her first cause of action which, as noted above, was barred by the statute of frauds. Even if plaintiffs first cause of action was not barred by the statute of frauds, G.S. 1-31 would not apply to it, because the alleged rental agreement between the parties was not a mutual account. See Brock v. Franck, 194 N.C. 346, 139 S.E. 696 (1927); Electric Service, Inc. v. Sherrod, 293 N.C. 498, 503, 238 S.E. 2d 607, 611 (1977).
[3] The plaintiffs action for fair rental value or “reasonable compensation” appears, then, to have merit so far as it is not barred by the statute of limitations. The trial judge, however, denied any recovery under this theory, finding that “[p]laintiff has failed to prove by the greater weight of the evidence what a reasonable compensation or fair rental value of said property is or would be.” The record indicates that the plaintiff testified that in her opinion “the fair rental value of the house and land occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Mock since 1974 has been $150.00 per month and the house had been rented earlier for that amount.” The record also indicates that the defendant offered evidence that the house was in poor condition. Defendant argues that, because the house was in poor condition, the trial judge essentially found that the property had no rental value, and that his finding should be upheld because he sat without a jury and acted as finder of fact.
We agree that because the parties waived jury trial, it was the trial judge’s “right and duty to consider and weigh all the competent evidence before him, giving to it such probative value as in his sound discretion and opinion it was entitled to be given.” Repair Co. v. Morris & Associates, 2 N.C. App. 72, 75, 162 S.E. 2d 611, 613 (1968). Further, “[w]hen a trial by jury is waived, and where different reasonable inferences can be drawn from the evidence, the determination of which reasonable inferences shall be drawn is for the trial judge.” Id. (emphasis added).
While the trial judge had the authority to believe all, any or none of plaintiffs testimony, and so to decline to accept her *569estimate of reasonable compensation, he did not have the authority to refuse to assign any rental value to the land at all. Even if the house on the property were fallen down or demolished, the land would still have a rental value. We do not believe that the judge reasonably could have inferred from defendant’s evidence that the house was in such poor condition that the property had no value whatsoever. We therefore conclude that the trial judge’s refusal to find a reasonable compensation for the occupation of plaintiffs land was an abuse of discretion. We remand for a calculation of such compensation for the period 10 April 1980 through 16 September 1983. We note that the result of our analysis above is that the defendant in her individual capacity or as ad-ministratrix of the estate is liable for amounts due from 16 September 1980 to 16 September 1983, while only the defendant in her capacity as administratrix is liable for amounts due from 10 April 1980 through 16 September 1980.
Reversed and remanded.
Judges Martin and Parker concur.
