Home / Situations / Inherited a house
Inherited a house you don't plan to keep?
Losing someone is hard enough without a house to deal with, especially one that's full of belongings, needs work, or sits far from where you live. I buy inherited homes as they are and work at a pace that respects your family, whether the estate is in probate or the house is already in your name.
- No commissions, and I pay the closing costs
- Sold as is, no repairs
- Close in as little as 10 days, or on your date
How I can help
What selling to me looks like
Leave what you don't want
Take the things that matter to your family, and I'll handle the rest of the cleanout after closing.
Work with your attorney
If the estate is in probate, I work alongside the personal representative and their attorney, and some probate sales need court approval, which I'm used to waiting for.
One decision for many heirs
When several family members share the house, a simple cash sale with one closing date can make it easier for everyone to agree.
Good to know. I'm not an attorney and I can't give probate or tax advice. Who can sign, and when, depends on how the property passed to you, so your attorney or a probate professional is the right person to confirm that.
Your options, side by side
What's the best way to sell in your situation?
Four quick questions show every realistic path, how long each one usually takes against your deadline, and what to have ready, even if the best fit isn't selling to me.
Questions people ask
Do I have to finish probate before selling?
Not always. A personal representative can often sell during probate, sometimes with court approval. Your attorney can confirm what applies to your estate.
Do I need to clean out the house first?
No. Take what you want and leave the rest.
What if family members live out of state?
Most of the paperwork can be signed remotely through escrow, so nobody has to travel to close.
