Holding
The court held that a sister who purchased her sibling's property at a foreclosure sale pursuant to an oral agreement to hold it in trust and reconvey it upon repayment of the purchase price as a loan was bound by that agreement, and the transaction gave rise to an enforceable resulting trust despite the repudiation of the express oral trust.
