It’s important to consider where you are in the Probate process. If you’re still waiting for
the Court to approve the sale of the property, there is not much you can do; you will
have to wait for court approval. Hi, I’m Sherri Echols, Broker Associate with RE/MAX Bryann – College Station and I’ve been selling Real Estate for over 11 years. So, what do you do while you wait for Probate? While you wait, there are a number of things that you could do to start preparing the property for eventual sale. This is important because it will help you save time once the house is ready for the market. One thing you can do to expedite the
process, is to be appointed with ‘Independent Administrative Authority’ which will make
the sale similar to your typical home sale. This will keep you from having to go back to
the courts for continuous approvals. Court hearings are continuously getting postponed
to future dates that may be months down the road-and you don’t want to miss out on the
best seller’s market of all time! There’s no better time to sell any item, including your
inherited home, than when demand for it is at an all-time high and supply is low. This is
exactly that time when you will negotiate your best possible price and terms. You’ll want
to keep in mind that the agent you select Makes ALL the Difference! Also, be sure to
seek the advice of a lawyer or an attorney as I am not one but just giving helpful
information. I’m your Community Market Leader Sherri Echols, a helping hand for a happy home.
