Hi snmnstrgrl,
It is true that you will have to get the title of the property transferred in your name in order to claim the ownership of the property. Paying property taxes won't be of any help in this matter. You should contact a real estate attorney and take his opinion in this matter. He will guide you in this matter.
Thanks,
Jerry
