Squatters rights Texas
Will I don't if I'm considered a squatter, I originally was purchaseing the property, but the original owner did not have the deed, and we agreed that I would make final pymnt when he came up with deed, he never did. He past away and he has a stepdaughter who claims to have inherited the property, but I have been paying the taxes for the past 20 years.

No rights what so ever. You are there as a renter. And can be evicted at the will of the owner. The issue is who actually owns the property ** when he comes up with the deed?** the deed is at the court house filed. You are merely paying someone else's taxes for no good reason unless that was part of your rental agreement |

I'd have to agree with the Excon despite being in Corrections. You can fight this with some luck. You didn't give us a lot of info but if there is a contract sue for your part. If not still you could try to sue. If it comes down to it you could use the fact he lied to you about the property having a lost deed or even use it as rent so they have to repay you.

Who is in corrections? Excon? I don't see winning this with some luck. It boils down to contract law - and there doesn't appear to have been one. The OP would be arguing against a dead man concerning the terms of the contract or agreement. Hard to believe that for that lengthy period no one thought to pull the Deed from the County. There is far too little info posted to come up with a legal opinion. I see no argument that the taxes were paid in lieu of rent UNLESS there is an agreement to that effect. |
