Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Michigan

Quit Claim Deed

Sister entered quit claim deed with elderly mother and

borrowed against it what she felt would be her half of

anticipated value. She did all this underhandly and

without my knowledge. She now wants out & has asked me

(her brother) to buy her half. I have no desire to do

this but I don't want my mother to be homeless either.

Is there a way to protect my mothers rights without

being forced into buying into a quit caim deed I

really want no part of.

Re: Quit Claim Deed

Dear Sir:

This is in response to your email of May 4, 2001, which was received by this office on June 18, 2001.

If you are able to show that your mother executed a quit claim deed under fraud, duress, or incapacitation the deed may be set aside. Other factors may include how long ago this quit claim deed was executed and when the loan was undertaken.

Thank you for contacting our office. Should you have any further questions regarding this matter, kindly contact us at (313) 561-5700.

Sincerely,

Blair Moody attorney for Nichols & Eberth, P.C.
