Inheriting a home can be overwhelming—especially when you’re managing repairs, taxes, insurance, and the emotional weight of loss. At Ark & Apex Homes, we specialize in helping heirs and executors across Maryland & Delaware settle estate properties quickly and painlessly. Whether the house needs major renovations, is tied up in probate, or you simply don’t want the hassle of listing it on the open market, we’ve got you covered
Common Challenges Heirs Face When Selling an Inherited or Probate Property
When inheriting property, you can encounter a variety of obstacles that turn what a straightforward sale into a complex, time-consuming process:
Multiple Beneficiaries: Coordinating among siblings, spouses, or distant relatives can stall probate; we help facilitate communication and unified agreements on property sales.
Outstanding Liens or Taxes: Unpaid property taxes, mortgages, or homeowner-association dues can complicate title transfer; we work with creditors to resolve these quickly.
Costly Repairs & Maintenance: From foundation issues to outdated systems, repair bills eat into estate equity; selling “as-is” eliminates the need for costly upgrades.
Emotional & Time Constraints: Estate administration is often an emotional journey. We guide you on the right paperwork, process, and closing so you can focus on family.
Helping you Understand the Probate & Estate Process
Understanding the probate and estate process begins with filing a probate claim, where the executor or personal representative submits the deceased’s will—if one exists—to the local probate court under its supervision. Once the claim is filed, creditors and heirs must be formally notified: creditors are given an opportunity to file claims against the estate, while heirs and beneficiaries learn of their potential inheritance. The court then requires an inventory of all estate assets—including real property—to be compiled, and a professional appraisal establishes the home’s fair market value. With this valuation in hand, outstanding debts, funeral expenses, and any estate taxes are paid from the estate’s assets before distributions to heirs can occur. At the same time, title issues such as liens, mortgages, or unresolved legal disputes are addressed so the property can transfer free and clear. Finally, once all legal and financial obligations are satisfied, the court approves the sale or distribution of assets to heirs; if you choose to sell to us, we coordinate directly with the court and title company to expedite your closing.

FAQ: Inherited Property Sales
Before you dive into the details, here are answers to the most common questions we hear from heirs and executors about selling an inherited property—covering everything from repairs and timelines to paperwork and fees.
Do I need to list with an Agent or make repairs?
No. We buy homes in their current condition and handle all steps—from title clearance to closing—without realtor commissions or repair costs.
How long does probate take, and can I sell before it’s finalized?
Probate timing varies by state and complexity (often 4–12 months). In many cases, you can secure a purchase agreement contingent on probate completion; we’ll work with your attorney to structure the sale appropriately.
What documents will I need?
Typically: certified death certificate, the will (if applicable), letters testamentary or letters of administration, and any mortgage or lien information. If you’re missing paperwork, we guide you through obtaining copies.
Are there any fees I pay?
None to us. We cover standard closing costs and title-company fees. You won’t owe agent commissions or surprise charges. The price we give you will be your cash amount minus any remaining mortgage fees, current utilities, or property Tax.
Can out-of-state heirs participate?
Absolutely. We specialize in remote transactions—digital document signing and wire transfers make it seamless for heirs anywhere.

Sell The Traditional Way
Listing your house with an agent
The time, money, and stress of listing your house on the market really add up.
- It could take months to sell your house
Your home costs you money the entire time it sits on the market. Some people just can’t wait 90 days to sell their house. - Fees and commissions add up
In addition to closing costs, commissions and fees stack up and reduce the cash that goes into your pocket. On average, 6% in commissions/fees are paid by a seller. - Open Houses and disruptions to your life
Not only do you have to get your house ready to show, but the number of showings can seriously disrupt your life. - You may be asked to make repairs
Depending on what happens during the inspection period, you could be on the hook for repairs you didn’t know you needed.
