What to Know About Probate in Pennsylvania
In most cases, an inherited property in Pennsylvania needs to pass through the probate process before it can be sold, which generally involves the executor or administrator being formally appointed through the county Register of Wills. Once appointed, the executor typically has the legal authority to sell estate property, sometimes with court approval depending on how the will is written or how the estate is structured.
We’re able to work with families at different stages of this process, including while probate is still in progress, and can coordinate with your attorney or the estate’s representative as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to complete probate before selling?
In most cases the executor needs to be officially appointed before a sale can close, but that doesn’t mean you have to wait to start the process. We can begin working with you and put an offer together while probate is underway.
What if there are multiple heirs who don’t agree?
This is common, and we’re happy to work with all heirs or their representative to find a solution everyone is comfortable with. A straightforward cash sale can often make it easier to divide proceeds fairly and move forward.
Can I sell an inherited house that’s out of state or that I haven’t seen?
Yes. We regularly work with heirs who live out of state or haven’t visited the property. We can coordinate the evaluation and closing remotely so you don’t need to travel.
What about outstanding taxes or liens on the property?
We factor in any back taxes, liens, or outstanding balances when putting together your offer, so these can typically be resolved as part of the closing.
Will I owe taxes on the sale?
Every estate is different, and tax treatment for inherited property depends on your specific circumstances. We’d recommend speaking with a tax professional or estate attorney about your situation before finalizing a sale.
