I can't quite understand the fact pattern, but it is possible that the grandmother could transfer part of the ownership to you. Maybe by a Will or some other device.

Either way, you need to show an attorney what your grandmother did, and they may have a way to give some relief.

If the deed is title to your grandmother and someone else - then this would be tenants by the entirety and she can deed her one half to you. In order for you to get the entire house, the other party will have to give you their one half.
