Handling quit claim chain with deceased...
I'm in the middle of a deal on an old fixer upper cabin. The title work came back with a chain of old quit claim deeds (some originators have since passed). I'm told this could be a "no go" as it would need sign offs from a few unknown "next of kin", etc. to provide true permission for the current seller to sell to me with a warranty deed. The title company has tried to track down the family tree but has hit a dead end. Has anyone been through this before? I'd assume there is an alternate process to move forward with a special situation like this. Thank you.
