A double quit-claim transaction?
I have a lot I am in the process of buying that has some title issues. As I've been working on closing the deal I've now been approached by a neighbor that would like to buy the lot from me and they know of the title issues. I've sent an email to my title agent asking this same question but I'd figure I'd ask here as well. Since I would not be able to get title insurance due to having to file to quiet title would I be able to have the current owner quit-claim to me and then I quit-claim to the neighbor? I can picture this working but at the same time don't want to do anything illegal or get myself in trouble down the road with something coming back on me.
