My mom just paid her house off. And had my ex wife sign a quit claim Deed to take her name off the deed. I was also on the deed but when my mom got the papers this week my name was not on the deed and I never signed a quit claim deed. How did my ex-wife get my name off the deed when I was on it already.
A quit claim deed does not transfer title. It merely records that one person quits their claim to use someone else's property, as in using a neighbor's driveway. Hire a local residential real estate lawyer to file an action to quiet title, undoing the fraud. Consider asking the lawyer to educate your exwife on the possible suit for fraud as well.
