SSDI/SSI recipients are allowed to own one real property wherein they reside without any adverse action. However, it will be better if his share of the property is placed in a special needs trust. I wouldn't advise him to do a quitclaim because (a) his share can be easily misappropriated, and (b) if the SSA finds out he gave away an asset worth tens of thousands of dollars he will have a problem.
