Questions
Common questions
Do I have to wait for probate to finish before selling?
Not always. It depends on who has legal authority and what the court has granted. Your probate attorney confirms that, and I coordinate with them so the listing, disclosures and offers fit those requirements.
We're divorcing and can't agree on the house. Can you still help?
Yes. I coordinate communication with both of you and your attorneys, provide written updates as appropriate, and document important decisions. Clear numbers often turn a painful argument into a calmer decision.
Do you handle rentals and commercial property?
Yes. Estates and divorces often include more than the family home: duplexes, apartment buildings, commercial and investment property.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes, with no obligation. If now isn't the right time, that's fine.
