Texas Tax Redemption Process

[Brandon Modisette]

I’m new (ish) to this site. I’ve followed it for years & haven’t posted. I have a question & really need some insight please!

I bought a tax foreclosed home at the sheriff sale 8 months ago. The owner would like to redeem the home now & has the cash plus the 25% in hand. I’m ready to give the home back to him & make the 25%, however, I’m unclear as to how we should handle the paperwork side of the transaction. Is a simple Quitclaim deed filed at the courthouse in real property records the way to do this? Any advice is much appreciated guys! 

Thanks Brandon
