What is the name of your state? Illinois
I have an out of state relative that has a house in the same town I live in. I live in Illinois and he told me I could have the home because he was moving to Mexico. He said that he would not mess with any legal stuff because the house is in a rundown drug area, not worth much and he was out of here. I checked the records and this year’s taxes are due and the house is clear and in his name. I paid the taxes, cleaned it up, paid the water bill and rented it out. Can someone tell me how I can get the deed in my name so that if I want to sell it later I can?
