Gather the basics
Identify the property address, owners of record, any mortgage or liens you know about, and the person handling the estate. Keep original documents secure and share sensitive records through the closing professional's secure process.
Keep the house looked after
Work out who is checking on the property and handling insurance, utilities, and essential maintenance. Discuss belongings and family priorities before deciding what a buyer may take on.
Ask the right people
A title professional and estate attorney can explain authority to sell and closing requirements. XI can discuss a potential purchase, but does not replace those advisers. Our inherited-house page explains how an as-is review fits into the process.
