Frequently Asked Questions
What is deed theft?
Deed theft (or title fraud) occurs when a scammer forges a homeowner's signature on a deed, files the forged deed with the county recorder, and transfers the ownership of the property to themselves or a third party without the owner's knowledge.
Is "Home Title Lock" necessary?
No. Paid title lock services monitor county databases and alert you to filings, but they cannot actually "lock" your title or prevent fraud from happening. Many counties offer free alert registries, and Guardian AI provides free alerts when you claim your profile.
How do I know if I am a victim?
Common signs of deed theft include: receiving utility bills or property tax statements addressed to someone else, not receiving regular mortgage statements, finding your property listed for sale online without your consent, or unexpected mail from unknown lenders.
What should I do if fraud is suspected?
Immediately report the incident to local law enforcement, the district attorney, and your county's deeds/records registry. You will need to contact a licensed real estate attorney to file a Quiet Title lawsuit to legally restore your ownership.
