Selling an inherited house can be a daunting experience. As soon as the probate is complete and all the legalities are done, the person inheriting the property needs to decide what they want to do with it. They need to try and extract as much value out of it as they possibly can.
There are a number of tasks that need to be undertaken such as renting out the property. Attending to any work that need to be done to make the property habitable. Appointing an estate agent to sell the property and agree upon a fee. Getting any and all unpaid bills up to date, attending to issues in the garden if outdoor space is included. Taking full responsibility for every aspect of the property.
Inheriting a property is usually deemed as positive in terms of the value of the asset being inherited. An inherited house can quickly become a liability if the person does not have any experience or if there are complications with the property. For example, if the inherited house is vacant and has an outstanding mortgage remaining. It is important to find a tenant to move in to cover the mortgage costs or sell the property as quickly as possible. If the condition of the property is poor, then this reduces the number of potential buyers who would take on the property. It can then mean paying extra money for refurbishment costs which can be very high.
On average, a property sale typically can take 6 to 12 months to complete through the traditional marketing route. This can be another daunting part of someone inheriting a property. Not only have they had to go through the emotionally draining legal probate and complete lots of paperwork. This can already be a lengthy experience, but they also must deal with the loss of someone. Looking forward, they could face another year of hassle, stress, and worry relating to the property. Unfortunately, this could mean the good intention of the person passing away and wanting to gift something of value to someone they care about. It can soon become a nightmare to deal with. An asset can quickly become a liability.
