Never sign contract with family
My ex husband and I signed a land contract with my in-laws and they refuse to give us both a copy of the land contract, which was signed in front of a notary,, mind you this was back in 1999. The house is paid for,, through our divorce in 2003 the judge ordered that it was joint tenants in common, I have the children, but I moved out due to harassment by his mother, so my ex husband still lives there.. Now she is mad at him and wants to sign the title over to his brother, what can I do to protect my rights and my ex's right, through where we pay taxes to it states on there both our names and then in parenthesis is states land contract. What can we do to stop this and prove our case that it was sold under land contract and quit her harassment? Furthermore, how do we get the title from her? Also, do I have any rights still to this house? My name is still on the taxes? She is telling me because I left the home that I forfeited my rights to that house is this true?
