i purchased a brand new home as a single woman in california. less than a year later, i married a man who convinced me to move out of state with a plan to eventually live in a "bigger home." he convinced me that selling my home would take a long time. he also claimed that his brother was a real estate investor and would take over my mortgage payments if i just signed a "quit claim deed" over to the brother, and that the brother would change the loan into his name after 3 months. it sounded legitimate and because i had seen all of the different properties the brother had acquired, i only assumed that he knew what he was doing. eager to start my new married life, i agreed. i signed the quit claim deed and it was recorded in the county's office.
i moved out of the home and as soon as i did, my life changed for the worse. i had resigned from my job to become a "housewife" at my newlywed husband's request. before i knew it, we living from hotel to hotel, i was physically abused and quickly thereafter, abandoned and left homeless. i have no way to contact him or his brother and the last thing i heard by a friend who drove by my home, is that he (the brother) has a mistress living in what was formerly my house.
i stayed on top of inquiring about the mortgage account since it is still in my name. the brother actually made the first couple of payments in full but made ridiculous partial payments on occasion since then ($60 here, $25 there)
i am surprised the lender has not contacted me about a foreclosure it has been over 6 months now since it was current. i am desperately working on trying to find the best way to start my life all over. i am employed again and would like to move back in the house if possible and would work on loan modification or some alternative to foreclosure if possible, but not if the brother (the grantee) and his mistress can live there practically free of charge!
is there a way to cancel, revoke, or rescind a quit claim deed? do i have any recourse given my circumstances? i signed it in ignorance so i am guessing it does not matter.
i should also mention that i am aware that i will probably have no choice but to suffer the credit consequences of this delinquent mortgage....but even still how long before the brother has to get out of the house, or will he at all?
utterly in despair,

desperate,
I got all your points and now I will suggest you that you should not go through legal talks (it may sound little hard) because you do not have any proofs so you will fail to prove in court that you have signed the deed in ignorance.
I will advice you that instead of wasting time and money on legal fronts you should talk to your ex husband's brother's friend circle. and talk to press about your cheating, talk to TV.Make it a big issue in any way and then people will seriously put pressure on government and believe me you will get the justice.
If you just try to go through only court matter you will be frustrated with your attempt.
keep in touch......
