Can a Quit claim deed get the job done?
I have a potential deal where the sellers are deceased and the property is behind on property taxes. The daughter of the deceased parents still lives there and has no issue with me getting the property. I believe that a Quit claim deed should be done first before I pay the taxes. The current deed has the deceased parents names still attached to it and it’s a strong possibility that I can get this property before it goes to the tax sale auction. Any suggestions on how to structure this deal properly would be great.
-the property is paid off
-one of the children still lives in the property (there is a sibling who doesnt live there.
-who exactly would I get to sign over their interest if neither of the children’s names are tied to this home?
