Seattle Probate Realtor for Heirs of Estate Property
Seattle Probate Agent
Specialist with probate estate homes and condos for heirs, trusts, and designated representatives. Brent has been involved in countless Seattle probate/estate home sale transactions over the years.
With homes that have been inherited through an estate or trust, there are many issues to consider, and every situation is unique. Wills, trusts, probate, attorneys, personal representatives, and all the details that need to be tended to.
Of course, the sale of a loved one's home can be very emotional. Brent knows this from his own personal experience when his parents passed away.
For The Heirs
As your probate realtor, Brent will obtain the highest price possible for the home. This is his primary goal. He will put together a detailed market analysis for you (the representative and/or executor), which will explain what the highest price is that you can expect in today's market. For this service, there is no cost to you or to the estate, and there is no obligation.
This market analysis will state what you should be able to receive for the home by selling it in "as-is" condition. This market analysis will also state a higher price that may be attainable if you choose to "spruce it up" a bit.
Paperwork
There are often associated matters to take care of, if you haven't done so already, such as probate issues with trusts, wills, and attorneys, to name just a few. Brent can help you with this if you wish.
And Brent will be glad to help by recommending a few excellent attorneys for estate, probate, will, family, and trusts. This can be helpful to determine whether you still need to address any remaining issues, or if everything is currently ready for the sale process to begin.
Preparation
Getting the home ready for sale can seem daunting, depending on whether the home has been kept in good shape, and if there is furniture and other personal items to sell, donate, and such.
Perhaps it could use some cleaning and/or repair. Brent often recommends some excellent local companies to help get this done. This includes expert cleaning crews, movers, junk removers, landscapers, and more.
As mentioned above, Brent will offer suggestions on how to best "make it shine" for very little cost. Or you can choose to do nothing if you wish, and just sell it "as-is". It is completely up to you.
Marketing An Estate Home
Even if the estate home is a bit of a fixer-upper, and if things haven't been tended to for a while, it is vital that a home's presentation be the best possible.
Buyers get their first impressions online. So having great photos and staging is vitally important, and can lead to obtaining a substantially higher price.
Brent includes Free Staging and Professional Photography on all his listings. This is at no cost to you, and is an amazing value and benefit.
The Beginning
After an initial phone conversation, Brent will walk through your home with you, and potentially offer suggestions on small fix-up ideas to attract the greatest number of buyers.
Brent has up-to-date knowledge on what today's buyers value most, and what they are looking for in a home.
Often, Brent finds that small improvements can yield big returns. And getting the most money for the heirs of the estate is of primary importance, so this is what is focussed on from day one.
Satisfaction
From the very first day, Brent will dedicate himself to achieving your goals, and will respect the objectives of the executors and heirs.
Brent will make certain that everything goes smoothly from the very beginning to the completion of the sale of your loved one's home. He will work diligently to make this happen.
You will stay informed on every step, and the selling process will be fully detailed. Brent wants you to feel comfortable and at ease.
To You
Brent promises to apply his years of experience of selling and preparing probate and estate homes for sale to meet your goals, and will work hard toward obtaining the best price.
