my aunt signed over the deed to my home to a sketchy limited liability company

I'm 23 and live in Florida. my grandfather whom I was a caregiver for passed away April 2021, he left his property to me and my sister in his last codicil of his will and trust. In this will he states that he wants to remove my aunt and anyone else listed on the will because they are deceased. My aunt knew this. The only issue is that my aunt and my dad (now deceased) are listed as trustees. When I tried to file the codicil at the courthouse they said I needed to file it in probate, which I couldn't afford so I wasn't able to.

Anyways

Out of nowhere this company sends someone to come to my house, opened my gate and banged on my door. Of course I didn't answer, when I opened the door after he left I found some kind of purchasers agreement/contract and a note saying he is interested in buying my home (at the time I was in the early stages of foreclosure, which is public record. but it's settled now). I called the number and immediately I had sketchy vibes from him so I didn't answer anymore calls or texts. I told my mom about the situation and she said the same man called her asking about my home as well. Well, he went to my aunt to convince her to let him buy the property, told her she's a trustee so she has all rights to it and she did. She signed the deed over and sold my home that I'm currently living in (worth 320k) for 60k!!! She said it will be split 4 ways between her, my sister and the other sister I have that hasn't been around in ages. This man filed an unlawful detainer case that was dismissed because the judge said he cannot file this type of case if we were in possession of the property before he purchased. He amended his complaint and the court decided that he had to file with circuit court instead of county because it involves property/title to land etc so now he has to refile AGAIN.

What can I do? I can't afford a lawyer and I've tried legal aid but they cannot find a pro Bono lawyer for me right now. Is there anything I can file In my defense? Any advice is appreciated.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

How to get started?

Hi! I’m 23F and I just graduated college with an english degree (😅) but i’ve been working in nonprofits since I was 16 and lucked into an amazing first job with an one of the biggest and best real estate non-profits! I love my job so far, but it’s my first time being surrounded by such wealth (and very hard working, deserving individuals.) To be quite honest, I‘ve had a rough few years juggling multiple jobs to finish school, and the idea of myself not living paycheck to paycheck seems light years away. This is all being said, I guess I’m posing the question towards the group of what I can do now to start building that kind of future for myself. I find real estate very interesting, and i’ve loved learning about all the machinations behind development- I’m just not sure where to begin within the industry (investment/rentals are definitely not an option for me yet). I’m also looking to go back to school, but being that I don’t know where to start, I wouldn’t like to begin classes aga...
