We work with the executor and probate attorney, clear the house with our own crew, and close when the estate is ready.
Inheriting a house usually comes at the worst possible time. There’s grief, a probate process to get through, and a house full of a lifetime of belongings. Often the heirs live in different states, don’t agree on what to do, or a family member is still living there.
Meanwhile the bills keep coming: property taxes, insurance, utilities, and repairs on a house that may have been put off for years. Many homeowner policies also limit coverage once a house sits vacant. Selling the traditional way means cleaning it out, fixing it up and listing it, all while managing it from a distance.
Paid in full at closing, so the estate can settle debts and divide the proceeds.
If the house is paid off and the heirs don't need it all now, a higher price paid monthly.
See every route side by side, including listing with an agent.
Share where it is, who the heirs are, and where probate stands.
We see it exactly as it is. No cleaning, sorting or repairs first.
Numbers on paper that the executor can review with the attorney and family.
We close once the executor can sell, and the proceeds go to the estate.
Soundview Avenue, Norwalk: an inherited two-family managed from Florida
The problem: In June 2025, a woman living in Florida called us about a Norwalk two-family she had inherited. Her family lived on the first floor. The house was full of belongings, and the second floor had been gutted with its gas disconnected. Fixing it from a thousand miles away wasn’t realistic.
What we did: We agreed on terms, waited for probate to finish, and bought the house for cash. Our crew handled the cleanout, so she didn’t have to fly back to sort through it.
The result: An 11-month gut remodel turned the 4-bed, 2-bath house into a 6-bed, 3-bath home with two offices, now a long-term rental.
Our own crew clears the house. Keep what you want, leave the rest.
We coordinate with the estate's probate attorney at every step.
Heirs who live out of state can usually sign without traveling.
In Connecticut, the local probate court appoints an executor (if there’s a will) or an administrator (if there isn’t). That person signs on behalf of the estate, so we can sign an agreement once they’re appointed, and close once they have authority to sell. Depending on the will, the probate court may need to approve the sale, which the estate’s attorney handles. Stamford, Greenwich and Norwalk each have their own probate court; Norwalk shares one with Wilton.
We can agree on terms once an executor or administrator is appointed, and close as soon as they’re allowed to sell.
Written offers side by side often help families decide. We’re happy to talk with every heir, but the executor has to sign.
Usually not. We handle the walkthrough, and the closing attorney can arrange a remote signing.
Take anything you want. Our crew clears the rest, and we set aside photos and papers for the family.
No. We’ll work out a fair timeline with everyone, and in a multi-family, staying on as a tenant can be part of the deal.
Yes. The loan is paid off from the sale at closing, or we can discuss terms.
It depends on the estate and the heirs. Ask your accountant or the estate’s attorney.
