Time to grieve.
Then a plan.
Inheriting a house usually comes with loss and a long list of questions. You don't have to answer them all at once. We'll take it one step at a time.
- You've inherited a home in the Austin area, maybe from far away.
- You're an executor trying to do right by everyone.
- You don't know whether to keep it, rent it or sell it.
- The house needs work, or a lot of sorting.
People first.
Never pressure.
First steps
What to do first, who to call and what can wait. We'll help you get your bearings.
Keep, rent or sell
The honest math on each option, so the family can decide with clear eyes.
Clean-out and sale
Sell as-is or prepare it first. We'll help you find people for clean-out, repairs and estate sales.
Can I sell before probate is finished?+
It depends on the estate and the will. That's a question for a Texas probate attorney, and we work alongside them.
I live out of state. Can you help?+
Yes. We can be your eyes on the ground and keep you updated every step of the way.
Do we have to fix it up first?+
Not always. We'll compare selling as-is with light prep so you can see the difference.
An Inherited Home First Steps checklist is being written (it will be reviewed by a Texas probate attorney and is not legal advice).
