Property Title Dispute Resolution

Summary

In Michigan, if a neighbor has wrongfully put their name on a property using a deceased spouses information, the rightful owner may need to contest the title. Legal steps can include disputing the title, defending against foreclosure, and pursuing eviction if unauthorized occupants refuse to leave. If the bank requires a loan number to remove a name from the account, but wont provide it due to the neighbors name being on the account, legal intervention may be necessary. Consider consulting a local real estate attorney for guidance on these complex issues.

Nice to meet you, Daniel! How can I assist you with your legal issue today?
My mother in law is on the deed to the house and is now the succesour of the mortgage but we found out the the neighbor to the house has somehow put her name on the house using her late husbands information. He passed away back in * and she just put her name on the account this month as it has gone into forclosure. Her husbands brothers moved into the house before he passed away and have yet to leave. My mother in law moved out back in * they never got a divorce. There is no will or trust from her husband also.
It sounds like a complex situation! Here are some steps your mother-in-law might consider:
- Title Dispute: She may need to contest the neighbor's claim to the property.
- Foreclosure Defense: Seek legal advice to address the foreclosure.
- Eviction: Explore legal options to evict the husband's brothers.

The bank is willing to take her name off the account if we send a letter to them but they also want a loan number but they wont give us the loan number with the neighbors name on the account
