Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the house need to be out of probate before you can buy it?
+
Not necessarily. We work with estate attorneys and can close concurrent with probate in many cases. Contact us and we'll explain your specific situation.
What if there are multiple heirs?
+
We've handled many multi-heir estates. All owners would need to agree to sell, and we'll work with everyone's timeline and legal needs.
Do I need to clean out the house?
+
Absolutely not. Take whatever has sentimental or personal value, and leave the rest. We handle all junk removal at no cost to you.
What if the home has significant repairs needed?
+
All homes qualify for the Easy Offer — from fire-damaged to fully renovated. Condition affects the offer amount, not our willingness to buy.
How long does the process take?
+
Typically 2-4 weeks for estate situations, though we've closed faster when needed. We work with your timeline and any legal requirements.
