Q: Land Parcel combination. Property Appraiser said OK and combined it. Now need to show “Unity of Title”. Can I use QCD?
Purchased a land parcel and it consisted of 4 parcels (all contiguous). Looking to develop/build small rental apartments and city will allow. City asked that we combine the parcels and we went to the Property Appraiser and they approved the combination. Now we are plan review with the city and they are requesting “Unity of Title”. Is it possible to use a Quitclaim Deed to show this?
A: Yes, a quitclaim deed has the same effect as a warranty deed except that the grantor(s) are not saying that they necessarily have clear title. You really should get an attorney in on this; your question suggests that you don't have the necessary knowledge to do this correctly.
