What You're Facing

Settling an Estate Is Hard Enough

Most people who call us about an inherited home are not in a hurry to make money. They are trying to close a chapter. There is a house full of a lifetime of belongings, siblings in three different states, a probate attorney sending paperwork, and property taxes and insurance still coming due every month on a home nobody is living in.

Marin makes this harder than most places. Homes here are valuable enough that the decision feels consequential, and many of them have not been meaningfully updated since the seventies or eighties. A traditional listing means repairs, inspections, staging and showings — on a property you may live hours away from.

What a cash sale actually changes

It removes the preparation entirely. No cleanout, no contractor bids, no open houses, no buyer financing that can collapse three weeks in. You get one number, you pick the closing date, and the estate moves on. That is not the right answer for every family — but when the house needs work or the heirs are scattered, it usually is.

Common Questions

Inherited & Probate Sales in California

Can I sell an inherited house before probate is finished?+
Often yes. If the estate is in full probate, the sale usually needs court confirmation and the executor or administrator signs. If the home was held in a living trust, the successor trustee can typically sell without probate at all. If the estate qualifies for California's small-estate or spousal property procedures, the timeline is much shorter. Tell us where you are and we will tell you honestly what is possible.
Do I have to clean out the house first?+
No. Take whatever matters to you and leave the rest exactly where it is. We handle the entire cleanout at our cost. For families facing decades of belongings in a parent's home, this is usually the single biggest relief of the whole process.
What if several siblings inherited the house together?+
Very common. All titleholders or the appointed estate representative need to agree and sign. A cash sale is often easier for siblings than a listing because there is one clear number to divide, no repair negotiations, and no months of showings to coordinate across households.
Will I owe capital gains tax?+
Inherited property generally receives a stepped-up cost basis to fair market value on the date of death, so gains are often far smaller than people expect — sometimes near zero if you sell soon after. California reassessment under Proposition 19 is a separate question. We are home buyers, not tax advisors; please confirm your situation with a CPA or estate attorney before selling.
The house needs major work. Will you still buy it?+
Yes. Deferred maintenance, outdated kitchens, failing roofs, foundation or drainage problems, fire or water damage — we buy as-is. Older Marin homes that have not been updated in decades are a large share of what we purchase.
How fast can you close?+
As few as 7 days once we have the authority to close. If the estate is waiting on probate court confirmation, the court calendar sets the pace rather than us, and we will hold our offer while you wait. You choose the closing date.
