My grandmother put the names of her children on the deed to her home. The house had no mortgage. :) After she died, we found that she owed back taxes. None of the children except for my Mom was willing to pay or even help pay it. :( In order to pay it she told them that they would have to sign the house over to her. My uncle who is an attorney drew up the papers and everyone signed it. Trusting my uncle, she didn't really pay attention to everything she signed neither did she get copies ( I know bad move). The house didn't have a mortgage previously but after everything was signed over to my mom and dad they did a refinance or mortgaged the home to do repairs. 5 years later, my mom is refinancing for a lower rate and finds out that my aunt filed a deed putting all of their names back on it. Because of this she was not able to refinance. Somehow my uncle had got my mom to sign back the house the same day that all of the siblings signed the house over to her. Armed with this he must have given the paper to my aunt who went and filed it at the registry of deeds on June 5th 2007. The motive for this act of craziness was because my mother asked my aunt and her husband to move out of the house. Is there a way for my mom and dad to fight this?
