A quiet title, in layman’s language, is a legal process used to establish clear ownership of real estate by resolving disputes over property rights. It is often initiated when there are multiple claims or liens on a property, such as in cases involving inheritance issues, unsettled mortgages, or past ownership conflicts. The quiet title action aims to remove any uncertainties surrounding ownership. Once the process is complete, the property’s title is free of any competing claims, allowing the owner to sell, refinance, or transfer the property without legal complications.
