Can we sell the house before probate is finished?

Sometimes. It depends on the will and what the court has authorized. Your estate attorney can tell you when a sale can happen.

Do we have to clean out the house first?

No. Many inherited homes sell as-is. A clean-out and light repairs often raise the price, so it's worth comparing both.

What if the heirs live out of state?

Jeffrey can handle the walk-through, vendors and showings locally and keep everyone updated by video and email.

Can you help our family in Spanish?

Yes. Jeffrey is fully bilingual and can explain every step in Spanish or English.
