Two years ago my father deeded me a piece of undeveloped property (1/2 acre) in a retirement community. I have tried selling the property for over two years and have even attempted to give the property away but no one wants it. I've called the community owners, who continue to sell lots, and told them I'd give them the property free of charge but was told that it is a "useless" piece of property and they didn't want it.
Can I quitclaim the property to them without their acceptance? I live in Pa and the property is in PA. I owe back taxes and ownership fees on the property. Do I have to pay these before I quitclaim the property? Can this hurt my credit score?

I don't think it'd be possible without their acceptance. You might want to check with some attorney... try finding at ellipsisdive.com Also, it might make sense to check with neighboring property owners if they'd be interested in buying... third option is "converting" the property to something useful and then selling it.. can it be turned into a parking lot??... so you have lot of options before you think of letting it go for free!
Already tried the neighbors, local real estate and papers. Can't do anything with the property except build a house because of the association rules.
