quit claim deed/warranty deed vs escrow for transfer of property

[Holly Feneht]

Hi there,

Trying to get some insight on our next property acquisition in Los Angeles County, CA. Husbands grandparents want to sell us a rental condo that is is extreme disrepair for below market value. Is it best to use an escrow company or safe to just complete a new deed and which type of deed ? OR am I missing any other options?

Thanks so much!
