A bank screwed up the Deed of Trust paperwork on my fathers home on *.* acres and * acre property lot in *. The bank did not add the house and lot it sits on to the document, just the acreage property next to the house. My father died, and the property and house were foreclosed on. But do to the banks error, the house should be mine through inheritance, but the separate property next to it has been foreclosed on. The realtor group thought they were buying the house and separate property. I was supposed to close the sale on the house yesterday, a cash offer, but that realtor group put a lien on the house. Do I own the house and what can I do about the lien they placed? The realtor group also wanted me to sign an affirmation of heirship and a correction quit claim deed, I did not sign. I did sigh a affidavit of heirship at the Title company's request
It sounds like a complex situation with potential legal implications. Here are some general considerations:
- Ownership: Whether you own the house depends on the specifics of the inheritance and property law in Colorado. The deed error may impact this.
- Lien: A lien on the house could complicate ownership and sale. You might need to resolve this legally.
- Documents: Signing documents like the affirmation of heirship and quit claim deed can have legal consequences.
