FAQ
Extremely rare. A person who does this without a title interest in the property or authority from you commits a criminal act. It's called fraud, but he is really “stealing” your property.
The short answer is yes, but there are some conditions and challenges you need to be aware of. It's important to understand your legal rights as the owner and how to deal with the mortgage in another person's name.
Unless you have a legal document, or can defend in court, describing how much of the house you own, they are well within their rights to force a sell of the house. You can either agree to sell it to a third party OR buy out their shares minus their share of the balance of the mortgage.
If they sell the property without any legal authority to do so this would be fraud.
In Nevada, an action may be brought by any person against another who claims an estate or interest in real property, adverse to him, for the purpose of determining such adverse claim.” NRS § 40.010. Such an action of quiet title requests a judicial determination of all adverse claims to disputed property.
In a worst-case scenario, criminals can use a fraudulent home title to turn around and sell the property to unsuspecting buyers without the real owner's knowledge or consent. This creates multiple victims: the true owner of a property, the buyer and possibly even the bank or lender.
Check public records: In many jurisdictions, property sales are recorded in public records. You can visit the local county or city clerk's office or the land registry office to access these records. They typically maintain information on property transfers, including auction sales.
If someone sells your house without your knowledge or consent and without giving you any proceeds from the sale, it constitutes fraud and is illegal.
It is typically very hard for a seller to cancel escrow without any valid reason for doing so. A change of mind is not acceptable. A good real estate attorney will be able to help the buyer push the sale through with aid from the court if need be.
The seller must complete the “Seller's Real Property Disclosure” form, detailing the condition of the property, known defects, and any other aspects of the property which may affect its use or value. A real estate licensee, unless he is the seller of the property, may not complete this form.
