I understand where you are coming from because I felt the same way. They are clearly not going to pay her; if they did, this would all go away.
And, yes,. there is always something more to the story...
Lol
Thank you everyone

I see two possibilities here. First, she has a note promissing to pay for the property. That note is in default so she forecloses on the property. There is no defense against not paying.

Second, the note was never properly executed. Therefore, the deed should never have been transferred over and she can have the deed placed back in her name. This might require filing charges of fraud.

Either way she should be able to get the property back so she can resell.

But it would be better to have a lawyer represent her interests.

She may be dealing with some statute of limitations issues, so she needs to not wait ANY longer to move on this.

I honestly cannot fathom letting someone steal a $200,000 property from me and just sitting back and not doing something / anything about it. That is preposterous. Are you sure there's nothing more to this story?

There is some reason nothing was done for 2 years, some type of side deal, side arrangement, complicity, something.

Just can't believe/understand that this is the way the transaction occurred and was left to stand for two years.
