Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

I live in a gated community considered a recreation park for campers and such. The original owner of the park sold the park to another party a few years ago, except for his home and land that home sits directly on.

The original owner then died and left the home and land it sits directly on to an heir. The park is now being sold again to a new party, and the heir to the home has signed over the home to make it part of a package deal. The current owner of the park does not own the home and never has, but the person trying to buy the park will own the home once the sale closes.

The party trying to buy the park has told me I could go ahead and move into the home as they will own it soon, and it's currently in transition between owners. The heir that signed it over for the sale has no problem with this, but as they signed it out of their hands, I don't know if that would matter or not.

My question is this, since the heir gave up the home, and the current park owners never owned the home and that one part of land it sits on, what happens to the home of the party buying the park (with the home included) does not close the sale and actually make the purchase?

It is not remotely possible to tell you who owns real estate without looking at all the documents and deeds, and your post is, at best, confusing.

Your post, at best, doesn't make sense. You would not want to move into or purchase property without a lawyer reviewing the documents and searching title.

Are you thinking about renting the home or buying it?
