“My sister and I inherited some property due to the death of my mother. We found that [Florida Cash Home Buyers’] customer service was excellent, they honored all their commitments, and we closed in 30 days. They did an excellent job.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sell a house that’s still in probate?
In some situations, yes — but it depends on your probate case. The court needs to approve the sale before closing. We’ll recommend a trusted probate attorney or work with your attorney to make sure everything is done properly.
How fast can you buy a probate home?
The timeline depends on where you are in the probate process and when the court authorizes the sale. Probate itself can take 6 to 9 months, but once approval is in place and a buyer is found, we can typically close in about 3 to 5 weeks. No matter your timeline, we’ll be ready to move forward as soon as the court gives the green light.
Do I need to clean out the home before selling?
No. You can leave everything as-is, including furniture, personal belongings and clutter. We handle the entire clean-out after closing.
What if the home needs repairs?
We buy inherited homes in any condition, even if they need major updates or haven’t been maintained in years. No repairs are required.
What if there are multiple heirs?
Multiple heirs are common in probate, and we’re used to helping families navigate that. If everyone agrees, your attorney will coordinate signatures. If there’s disagreement, they can also advise on options such as a partition. Whatever the situation, we’ll help make the sale as straightforward as possible.
Do you cover closing costs or fees?
Yes. We pay all standard closing costs, and there are no commissions or hidden fees. Probate or attorney fees remain part of the estate.
Can you buy the home if I live out of state?
Absolutely. Many heirs live out of state, and we can handle everything remotely to make the sale easy and convenient.
What if the home has tenants or family members living in it?
We can still buy the property. Whether there are tenants, relatives or occupants of any kind, we’ll honor existing leases and handle everything after closing.

Compare Your Options for Selling an Inherited Home
During probate, timing and simplicity matter. Listing with an agent can work for some families, but others need a more flexible approach that doesn’t require repairs or showings. Here’s how each option compares so you can choose what feels right.
| Selling to Us | Selling with a Real Estate Agent |
|---|---|
| Fair cash offer right away | Wait months to find a potential buyer |
| Zero fees, commissions, or closing costs | Typically 6% to 7% commission and 2% to 3% closing costs |
| Close in as little as 5 days | Usually close in 90 to 180 days |
| Sell as-is in any condition | You’re responsible for all repairs |
| Opportunity for a cash advance | Not available with agents |
| Flexible closing timeline that fits your schedule | Multiple showings, listings and open houses |
