technically it makes the trust the owner of the house although depending what type of trust it was the ownership can be easily converted back to the mother.It is very likely that you never owned the house. Anyone can pay the taxes for someone else's house. Same with insurance. When you paid the taxes it would have said who was the owner of the property right on the top of the tax bill. What did it say? It probably said what you mentioned earlier, "The Original Deed reads mom and I as Trustees of her trust". That makes your mother the owner of the house.
