Buying a REO with a quit claim deed - bad idea?
Hello BP,
I came across a property (SFH) that is offered for sale with the following clause:
Buyer will accept with a quit claim deed-no title insurance, assume any liens, code violations, fines.
The property is owned buy a bank but I wonder what can possibly be so wrong with the title that the bank cannot fix it and want to quit claim it to a buyer. I understand about code violations and fines but what else can be there?
How can I protect myself against possible title issues?
Thanks
Nick
