my husbands grandparents own 5 acres of property,when they pass the whole 5 acres will be ours but right now they want to transfer 2.5 acres over to us to put a house on it. we are not sure if a quit claim deed is all we need or if this is the best way to transfer the property. any suggestions? we live in nc
You will need to subdivide the property. This is somewhat complicated and requires a lawyer. Contact a local real estate attorney.
