Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Massachusetts
Quit Claim Deed
I sold one of my houses about four years ago, and after passing papers and signng over a quit claim deed, I have been contacted by the closing agent telling me the lot number was changed by the clerk at the couthouse indicating the home I didn't sell, and I've been asked to sign another quit claim deed and the buyer would sign a quit claim deed to reflect a sale to me for the property that was never sold. How can I resolve this problem which occurred after the paper work was signed by me with with the correct lot number on it? The property has been recorded with a penciled out lot number on it. The address is recorded correctly, but not the lot number. Thank You

You need to record confirmatory deeds to correct the clerical error. Retain an attorney to guide you. Good Luck!
