Anyone can quit claim anything, whether they own it or have any right to it or not. A thorough title search will verify if they even have a right to anything. I have quitclaimed my position in an option to someone in exchange for a fee before. Make sure this person has an interest worth paying for @Makango Malondji If it's just some shady wholesale deal with a weak contract from a potentially forged seller, verify it!
