My daughter’s boyfriend has stollen her/my house

[stra8up3]

With in the past few months I transferred ownership of my house into my daughter’s name so that she & my 3 grandchildren could have a home. It was verbally agreed that I (live in my RV) & my 2 horses could remain on the property. Since then my daughter’s boyfriend has manipulated my daughter’s name off the deed & is trying to get rid of me. My daughter was unaware that she had signed the title away & now wants to know how we can get it back into her name & my name. My question is, can this be done? How? & Who do we go to? We live in California. Thank you teri

so, since it would require her signing a deed transferring her interest to the boyfriend, just how was she duped into signing a deed? It's usually pretty obvious it is a deed because it will say that right at the top of the page. Right after that, it will state that (grantor;s name (your daughter) is transferring her interest in the property to the grantee (boyfriend). How did she overlook such clear cut statements in a document she was signing?

If your daughter was not financially responsible, you should never have placed her on title, much less on title as sole owner without also reserving a life estate for yourself (which would have insured your continued use). These things should only be done after consulting an attorney and thouroughly researching the best options. Daughter could have been made a co owner with life estate to you. OR house could have been placed in a trust. One would presume if daughter is old enough to be mom to three kids, she's old enough to know to NOT sign a deed of the home you gifted her and for which she agreed you'd have continued land use. There is no way A DEED LOOKS LIKE ANYTHING OTHER THAN A DEED.

You have nobody to blame but your daughter. UNless a gun was held to her head when she signed, she signed voluntarilly.

Why would one need to transfer ownership in order to give their child and grandchildren a place to live?

I think there is a lot more to this story. And daughter may not have been duped. Rose-colored glasses often cloud reality

Rose colored glasses doesn't preclude duping.

Rose colored glasses doesn't preclude duping.

Mom says she was duped. Daughter may be duping mom

Mom says she was duped. Daughter may be duping mom

That's possible too...not as likely, but certainly possible.

Just another reason to get legal representation any time a deed is involved.

I see nothing here to get the OP back what was his.

No kidding. Grandma could have simply given permission for her kiddo and kiddo's kidlets to live there.

Statute of fraud apply since this may have been a real estate transaction without a written contract?

It is not illegal for family members or couples to transfer RE between themselves without a contract.
