She needs to speak with an attorney as soon as she can about bring ing an action to "quiet title" and take back the property. It need to be established that the property is not being sold with his property. He may claim "adverse possession" but I think that he will lose if she consented with the understanding that the proeprty remained hers and he would fix it when he decided to sell. Get help. Good luck.
