    “They said they can’t remove a document once it has been recorded.”

    Clearly they reversed the original document in favor of the person committing fraud, just do the same thing and take it back.

      I think the actual owner needs to file a document to supersede the fraud document. Or send their mortgage company after them, with a firm "hey, the house is gone, you should fix this or I stop paying, what are you gonna do, foreclose? ". (Probably ask nicer, they may have a legal team that helps with these things)

      In North Carolina you can pay insurance for your deed for this very reason. I heard about it and thought it was silly.

      They basically register the deed with the insurance company and if something happens, your insured copy is provided and verified with the office. Of course you are paying for the privilege haha
