• False impersonation of the true owner of the property by the seller or other persons previously in title • Forged deeds, releases and other documents • Deeds by persons of unsound mind • Deeds by minors • Invalid documents completed by an expired attorney • Invalid deeds delivered after the death of the grantor • Deeds by supposedly single persons but actually married • Fraud • Claims for unpaid estate inheritance and gift taxes against prior owners of your home • Unrecorded easements – giving one party the right to enter another party’s property • Undisclosed descendents of former owners of your home or the land on which it is situated TOP
