Selling an Inherited House

Inherited Property to Sell?

If you own an inherited house you may be thinking about selling it. Owning your own house alone can be tough to manage, but an inherited house comes with a few extra challenges.

What Can I Do With an Inherited House?

There are a two main options to consider when you own an inherited property. You can either rent it out or sell it.

Being a landlord by renting out an inherited house is a great opportunity to earn extra money and maybe even take advantage of tax benefits. Of course, you have to make sure you are doing it the right way. If it is your first venture into being a landlord then it is recommended that you seek professional assistance to help manage tenants, rent collection, and ensure that you are complaint with laws and regulations. Renting out an inherited house can be very beneficial, but it can also cause a lot of headaches if you are unprepared for the various issues that can come up.

Selling an inherited house is usually preferred instead of renting it out. If family or friends already live there then it may make selling it even easier. They already consider it home, so why not make it official? As long as they can qualify for a home mortgage, low interest rates make it a great time to buy a home!

Problems With Inherited Houses

If you own your own home, then you know that it requires constant maintenance and upkeep. Owning a home that you do not live in will require the same kind of care.

The biggest issue that people face when inheriting a house is the repairs and upgrades needed so they can rent or sell it. Most inherited houses will need new paint, new flooring, and updated fixtures & appliances to complete with other homes on the market. The costs with making those repairs can easily add up to $20,000 or more, especially if the roof or HVAC system needs replaced as well.

I like your straightforward and low stress approach. The team was super efficient and committed to follow-up in a timely fashion…The deal was evaluated on the merits of finding a winning solution for both parties, Seller and Buyer. Everything was simple and exactly as advertised; without the last minute maneuvers often deployed by many investors.

Just needed to get rid of the money pit. You guys were so easy to work with. I have wanted to do that for a long time and you made it possible. Big decision on my part. I am not one to fix it up myself especially when I didn’t care much about it, ever. Thanks.
