Selling Inherited Property

Managing an inherited estate after the death of a loved one often involves dealing with a number of complex financial decisions. If you are an executor, guardian, conservator or other fiduciary facing these decisions, you may be aware that quickly removing the burden that an inherited property can create is often one of the most difficult of these financial challenges.

Many beneficiaries — particularly in states that impose an inheritance tax — decide to sell inherited real estate to ease the financial burden of the property and the resulting inheritance tax, and in many cases, to be able to divide its value among multiple heirs.

Selling a home or other real estate assets after a relative dies is often the largest and most complex part of any estate sale. While there are many ways to conduct an estate sale, one effective method that has surged in popularity is a professional property auction. Tranzon's professional auctioneers can assist you to make selling a deceased loved one's home, commercial asset or investment property as fast and efficient as possible.

Selling Inherited Property After A Loved One's Death Via Auction

While many people's first reaction upon inheriting a property is to place it on a listing site, it might take months — or even years, in some cases — to find an interested buyer. During this time, insurance, utilities and other maintenance costs can stack up and create an undue financial burden on heirs.

Instead, property auctions allow you to set your own timeline for selling your newly acquired investment property, farm, commercial property or other type of real estate — a particular advantage to beneficiaries who want to sell their asset as quickly as possible. They also create a competitive bidding environment to ensure you get the highest possible price for your inherited property to pay back any bills or taxes you might owe.

Because you can set the sale date at a pace that works best for your needs, auctions offer an excellent advantage for anyone looking to sell an inherited property quickly and effectively without compromising on price.
