Yes, as she has legal title and you, at most, have equitable title. It does not matter whether the agreement is written or oral [except it is clearly much easier to prove what a written agreement says than an oral one]. If the agreement does not state that you are the owner then she remains the owner. Paying insurance suggests you might be the owner but is no proof, especially when it might just be a nice act by a son for his mother.
