Probate is a legal process that follows the passing of an individual and involves the distribution of their assets, including real estate. According to the latest industry research, around 1.3 million homes pass through probate every year in the US.
Yes, inheriting a home can be a daunting experience, but now there’s a comprehensive resource breaking down the intricacies of the process to help you make more informed decisions—so worry not!
Guide to Probate provides information on managing taxes, home upgrades, and selling inherited property. Also available are articles discussing the probate process in certain states, particularly the statutes and regulations unique to that state. For example, you can now access in-depth articles covering the probate process in Maryland and Virginia, and you can expect more to be published soon.
But if you have further questions, understand that selling an inherited property requires a thorough understanding of the local area dynamics—it’s hard to do so without some working knowledge of real estate. For this reason, it’s perfectly OK to consult real estate professionals who specialize in the field.
