Inheriting a house is rarely just inheriting a house. It's inheriting a 30-year accumulation of belongings, a roof that hasn't been replaced since 1998, decades of deferred maintenance, possibly a probate court timeline, and often a difficult conversation with siblings about what to do next. We make all of that simpler.
Listing an inherited home with an agent usually requires three things you don't have: time, money for repairs, and consensus among heirs. Most inherited properties haven't been seriously updated in decades. Most heirs don't live nearby. Most estates don't have $40,000 sitting around for a pre-listing renovation. And probate court timelines mean the property often can't even be officially sold for 60 to 90 days after the death — during which time it's still racking up insurance, taxes, utilities, and maintenance costs.
The bottom line: these situations need a buyer who’s seen them all before, who can move fast, and who doesn’t flinch at complications. That’s us.
Three things that make the process work for sellers in your situation.
We buy inherited homes as-is — including everything left inside. You don't have to make repairs, hire a cleaning crew, or coordinate a charity pickup for furniture. Take what you want, leave the rest, hand us the keys at closing.
We work with probate attorneys and personal representatives constantly. We can put the property under contract before probate is complete and structure the closing to align with the court's timeline. In Maryland, DC, and Virginia, that often means closing within 30-60 days of the personal representative being appointed.
We also handle properties with multiple heirs, properties with title clouds, properties with unpaid taxes or liens, and properties where the deceased didn't leave a will. Our title company has seen every variation of estate complication. None of it stops the sale.
