We Can Make You An Offer On Your Inherited House
“I inherited a house in California and all of its problems – help me!” Losing loved ones is one of the most difficult things we go through in life. We deal with our own grief and the grief of friends and family members. In the midst of everything, we are expected to make decisions for funeral arrangements and execute the will. If you’ve inherited a property, you’ve also inherited everything that comes with it. Suddenly you are faced with your own expenses and the expenses of another home. Property taxes, deferred maintenance, and dated décor all become problems you have to deal with.
The situation becomes more complicated when more than one party shares an interest in the home. This is often the case with siblings. Everyone’s life is on hold until the property sells. You could go the traditional route and list with a real estate agent. An agent will want any major repairs completed before listing the property. They may even suggest staging the home. In addition, while the house is on the market, you and any other heirs are responsible for property taxes, utilities, and lawn maintenance. Inspections and appraisals could bring up major repairs that have to be fixed. If you are seeking a faster way out, Authentic Home Buyer would love to make you an offer because we buy inherited houses all the time.

Avoid Out of Pocket Costs
When you choose to sell your inherited property with an agent, they will insist that you invest money back into the property in order to prepare your house for listings so that buyers will find value in your property. But when you sell with us, you can sell your home as-is without forking up thousands of dollars for any repairs. Seriously! Also, when someone in the family passes away and the house is left vacant, the property, in time, will start to deteriorate. We will take your inherited property off of your hands FAST before any lasting damage arises. When you sell your inherited home to us, you can rest assured knowing the property won’t remain uninhabited or decay, and we won’t charge you for those repairs.
Close the Property Faster
If your inherited house goes to probate, the property still needs to be maintained even if no one currently occupies or lives in the home. The probate process can take months, and all the while, families are paying costs. Someone still needs to pay property taxes, homeowners’ insurance, utilities, and insurance fees. After the probate period is finished, those with inherited homes may even need to repair their property or hire an agent who will then spend more time trying to find a buyer for the home. And many agents who want to cover their own bottom lines won’t list a house until probate is complete and the home is staged with what they deem necessary repairs. All the hassle and costs will add up fast. However, if you sell to Authentic Home Buyer, we can give you CASH in hand in as little as seven days!
