Real Estate Fraud

My grandmother is a 93 year old waoman that is in a wheelchair and is partially blind, and partially deaf.

One of my older sisters has power of attorney over her

finances only. This sister name was on the deed as of

July/2004. Her name was forged and by my nephew and property

deeded to my nephew who then sold the property to a stranger

who took out a loan. How do I get property back in my

grandmother's name, Get loan rescinded, and obtain power of

attorney?

Sincerely,

Help!!!

Re: Real Estate Fraud

You probably don't get it back if it went to a good faith purchaser; we would have to see more detailed facts to decide. You can and should take action for recovery of the money against the family members, and action to get conservatorship of the grandmother to avoid further problems. Contact me if interested in doing so.
