Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts
Real Estate titles
If a real estate title was obtained by fraudulent means (quit claim without the signatures of trust owners), and the property was set up in a new trust under a new name, then subsequently sold (twice), do the new owners not have clean title? Do they have any recourse against the fraudulent transaction not caught by the land court or the title searches?

Re: Real Estate titles
You have not described fraud.
If you feel there are problems, then you can file an action to quiet title, assuming you can be a legal party with a legal interest.
