If a house has been sold to you through fraudulent means, such as with a forged signature or without the true owner's consent, you may still be able to legally own the property. The key is to take swift legal action to expose the fraud and reverse the impacts.
First, it's important to contact an attorney who can help sort out the situation. They can assist in contacting the relevant authorities, like the credit bureaus and local police, to report the identity theft and fraudulent real estate transaction. The attorney can also work to have any deeds or titles conveying the property to the fraudster declared null and void, as those documents were obtained illegally. With the right legal support, you should be able to regain rightful ownership of the home, even if it was sold to you under false pretenses.
