Selling an inherited house

Wondering what happens when you inherit a house?

It’s an amazing kindness when a relative remembers you by willing you a house. But often, what happens when you inherit a house is you become responsible for the monthly mortgage payments, the annual insurance premiums, property taxes and any other liens or debt on the property. You may own it with other relatives that all have a say in the decisions about the house. And there’s Federal inheritance tax to pay. Plus, you may be having to deal with the house from several states away.

In our experience, it’s pretty common that an inherited house becomes more of a burden than a blessing.

You have options for selling an inherited house.

Usually, people who want to sell an inherited house consider the traditional listing and selling process first. What they rarely consider is the upfront cost of updating, repairing, cleaning, and staging the house to get it ready for sale, all while potentially needing multiple parties to agree on each of those decisions. Then there are real estate agent fees and closing costs to consider. Plus, there’s no guarantee how quickly it will sell.
