Waiting Period Quiet Title Action
I purchased a property in Dec 2019 and legally took possession in January of 2020. I contacted an attorney today to start the quiet title action. I was told that I need to wait two years after the intial property tax auction bid date to start the Quiet Title? He also said the usual cost was around 2500 for a estate quiet title.
Is this Accurate?

You do not need to do a QT to be able to rent it.
You do not need to do a QT to sell to a cash buyer with a Quit Claim Deed.
You need to do a QT if you want to sell to someone who has to get a mortgage OR you can clear it up yourself by clearing up the clouds. These would be get a QC deed from previous owners and a mortgage release if applicable.
