How It Works: Sell Your Share of an Inherited Property for Cash

You do NOT need your siblings, cousins, or any other heir to agree. We can buy YOUR individual share of an inherited property right now, without the rest of the family.

We Help Heirs In Situations Like These

Every week we work with people who are stuck in inherited property situations. You don’t have to have it all figured out to reach out. If any of this sounds like you, we can help.

  • The house is still in your deceased parent’s or relative’s name and nothing has been done
  • You and other heirs can’t agree on whether to sell, keep, or rent the property
  • Some heirs haven’t responded or simply can’t be found
  • The property is currently going through probate
  • There’s an active mortgage on the property and you don’t know what to do with it
  • You live out of state and can’t manage a property from where you are
  • The property has back taxes that keep growing
  • You need cash now and can’t wait months or years for the rest of the family to get on the same page
  • You believe you’re an heir but have never taken any legal steps to establish that

How It Works in 4 Steps

Contact Us

 Call, text, or fill out the form below. Tell us about the inherited property and your connection to it. Even if all you know is the address, who passed away, and how you’re related to them, that’s enough to get started.

We Verify Your Heirship

We do the research. We typically need your government-issued ID, a death certificate for the deceased, and your birth certificate to establish the family connection. If you have additional documents like a will or probate paperwork, those help, but we can usually work with just the basics.

Receive Your Offer Within 24 Hours

Once we’ve reviewed the property and confirmed your heirship, we’ll present you with a cash offer. There is zero obligation to accept. You can take your time, think it over, and ask us any questions.

Get Paid in 3 to 5 Days

If you accept, we handle everything from there: all legal paperwork, the Affidavit of Heirship, probate coordination if needed, and the notary. A mobile notary comes directly to you, wherever you are in the U.S. or internationally. You never need to travel to the property or come to an office. The fastest we’ve ever paid an heir from start to finish: 24 hours.

We Pay However Works Best for You

We are flexible on how you receive your money. Most people use Zelle or wire transfer for speed, but we accommodate whatever is easiest for you.

Questions Heirs Ask Us

These are the questions we hear most on the phone. If yours isn’t here, call or text and you’ll get a straight answer.

Q: Can I sell my share of an inherited property even if my family doesn’t agree?

A: Yes. This is exactly what we specialize in. We can buy YOUR share individually, without needing any other heir to agree, sign, or even be notified during your negotiation. Whether there are 2 heirs or 50, you can sell your piece right now. You don’t need a family vote. You don’t need everyone on board. You just need to reach out to us.

Q: What if the house is still in my deceased parent’s or relative’s name?

A: That’s the most common situation we deal with. It doesn’t matter whose name is on the deed. As long as we can verify through our research that you are a legal heir to that property, we can buy your share of the inherited property and handle fixing the title. You do not need to have gone through probate first or have filed any paperwork beforehand.

Q: Is my share too small to sell?

A: No. It doesn’t matter how small your ownership interest is. We will buy as little as 1% of a property if the numbers make sense. There is no minimum.

Q: Do I need to go through probate first before I can sell my share?

A: No. You do not need to complete probate before selling your share of an inherited property. We handle the legal complexity. We work outside of traditional title and title insurance, which means we take on the legal risk so you don’t have to. You receive your money upfront. We deal with everything on the back end after you’ve been paid.

Q: Can I sell my share even if the property is currently going through active probate?

A: Yes. You can sell your interest in the estate even while probate is already in progress. We are experienced in buying heir interests during active probate proceedings. You can receive your cash buyout now and we continue to work within the probate process on our end. Your deal does not have to wait for probate to conclude.

Q: How do I prove that I’m an heir?

A: The basics are: a government-issued photo ID, a death certificate for the deceased, and your birth certificate to establish the family connection. Additional documents like a will, probate filings or family records also help. But in most cases, the three documents above are enough for us to get started and we handle the rest of the research ourselves.

Q: Will you tell the other heirs that I’m selling my share?

A: We keep your consultation and your negotiation completely confidential. We do not contact or inform the other heirs while we are working with you. Once we have completed the purchase of your share, we will at that point begin reaching out to the remaining heirs, because our goal is to eventually acquire 100% of the inherited property. But that happens after you have already been paid and the deal is done.

Q: What are your fees? Who pays for the legal work?

A: You pay zero fees. Nothing comes out of your pocket. We cover everything, including the Affidavit of Heirship, attorney review of all documents, notary fees, and any other legal costs associated with the transaction. Our compensation comes from the offer price we agree on, not from charging you additional fees on top of it.

Q: Why is the offer price below market value?

A: This is a fair question and we always answer it honestly. When we buy an heir’s interest in an inherited property, we are doing so outside of traditional title and without title insurance. That means we are taking on significant legal and financial risk. It could take us one month or it could take us ten years to fully resolve the title and get the property in our name. We absorb all of that uncertainty. In exchange for that risk, the offer is at a discount to market value. What you get in return is cash in your hand right now, zero fees, zero legal headaches, and zero waiting. The vast majority of heirs we work with feel that is an extremely fair trade.

Q: What if there’s a mortgage on the inherited property?

A: Not a problem. We can still buy your share even if there is an active mortgage on the property. We take over the responsibility of that mortgage as part of the transaction, even if the mortgage is under someone else’s name. You provide us with the details of the mortgage and we work through it. You walk away with no mortgage obligation.

Q: What if I don’t live near the property or I’m in another state?

A: That is completely fine and very common. We send a mobile notary directly to wherever you are, anywhere in the United States and even internationally. You never need to travel to the inherited property, visit an office, or coordinate any logistics on your end. We handle all of that. You just need to be reachable by phone.

Q: Is this legal? Are you working with licensed professionals?

A: Yes, this is 100% legal. Every transaction we do is reviewed by our in-house paralegal (Kath) and our primary attorney (Dan). We also work with licensed title companies and additional attorneys as needed on each transaction. We can provide attorney contact information upon request. While Raul is not personally a licensed real estate agent, every document and legal structure used in our transactions is prepared and reviewed by licensed legal professionals.
