Overview
• Create a Tangled Title Fund to assist homeowners facing legal barriers tied to unclear or disputed property titles.
• The fund would support efforts to resolve inheritance, estate, and probate complications that prevent families from securing clear ownership of their homes.
• The policy notes that tangled title issues disproportionately affect homeowners in Black and brown communities, where informal property transfers are more common and increase the risk of displacement or fraud.
