Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Michigan
Quit claim deed
I was renting a home rent to own when the owner told me he owed 10 thousand in back taxes and was going to lose the home, I offered to pay back taxes and he quit claimed home to me and I paid the taxes. Now his family is saying he never signed the quit claim deed. It was signed, notarized and recorded and I have the deed.they told me they were filing a lawsuit saying he never signed. what legal standing does his family have?

Re: Quit claim deed
In order to have standing to file a suit against you, the claimant would have to stand in the shoes of the former owner. They could only stand in his shoes if they were a guardian/conservator/personal representative or the like.
If I were representing you, I would write a letter stating that if they file the suit without any meritorious legal grounds (and none have been indicated thus far), the lawsuit would likely be considered frivolous causing them to have to pay your attorney fees, costs, and possibly other sanctions.
If you would like me to write a letter on your behalf, please contact me via my website at www.lawrefs.com.
Good luck.
