Legal Ques. RE: Quit Claim - Posted by BR2

A few years ago I was selling a lot requiring 7 people to sign off via quit claim. The deal went bad and the lot was never sold. Yesterday I got a call from a potential buyer. I still have the quit claims from all 7 individuals. My question is, can I record these documents now and sell, or do I have to start all over. (Notary comm. has also expired)
Thanks in advance.

yes you can record anytime with a notary seal that was valid at the time signed, Once I recorded two deeds from 10 and 20 years prior, that were all signed and notarized but never recorded. Both prior owner’s were selling on CFD and buyer never fullfilled their obligations. I did and got the deeds and recorded them. instant cloud removal!

If you ask a legal question, why not ask it of a attorney in your area?
I could give you my opinion, but I’m not an attorney, here or where you are.
Oh, ok. I think you probably can do it. But, first, get a legal opinion.

Bud’s on the right track with info I think. Check with title company, they might not issue title insurance with such old signatures (which would only be a problem for the new buyer, if they get it, not you). Do you even know if the all of them are alive still that signed?
Also could be some legal issues come up, especially if those 7 “lose” something now by you disposing of the land. Could be lawsuit city and you might need a legal opinion.

You need to find out from your title company if or when they would insure title. Title companies in Texas do not like QCD’s. They feel they do no convey. They want a deed wo warranty instead.

If I understand what your saying. You were selling lot and in the process others were involved and they quit claimed their interests to you during the process.
You then didnt sell the property and also never filed the deeds.
Yes, you could file the deeds… and they would be effective from what I understand… not being an attorney an all.
It is the date of the transaction, not the filing of the paperwork that matters.
On the otherhands if there were questions arising from lack of the filing (other liens filed etc) it might possibly mess up title.
