Need Quit Claim Deed Advice

I’ve two questions on Quit Claim Deeds. I’m sure this is a topic that’s frequently visited, but I can’t seem to satisfy my interest in the subject.

I’m looking into purchasing a vacant lot which has a Quit Claim deed. From what I can tell, it is inherited property that is under current ownership since last July. Before that it was owned by someone of the same last name since it’s purchase in 2008.

I also own another vacant lot that has a Quit Claim deed. I purchased last year from an individual that bought it at the county tax sale.

My intentions are to build small homes on both properties. After reading a lot of different info on Quit Claim Deeds, most of which advises to steer clear of these types of properties.

So, question 1... Should I stay away from the pending purchase of my recent vacant corner lot find?

Question 2.... What can I do to ensure I can safely build a home on my current QCD property?

Properties are located in South Carolina if that matters on the direction of advice. Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions!

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...
