That one does look interesting… but I don’t think fraud was involved.

I looked up the parcel number – and got the prop tax payers names… and plugged them into a grant deed search. It appears that the most recent “sale” was a buyout between two family members. Not arms length – and one of the previous owners still owns it, just not jointly…
At least that’s what it looked like on a cursory look.
