By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.
You need to contact a qualified real estate attorney who can try to salvage the mess that has been created. You might be able to save the property by filing a suit to quiet title and show the court that you were defrauded out of the home and that equitable title remains yours even if legal title now shows in the name of the company.
