What we do with the house and its contents
We buy the house as it is, including a house with belongings still inside. No repairs, cleaning, cleanout, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings is required to sell to us.
While an estate holds a house, property taxes, insurance, utilities, upkeep, and any mortgage payments can continue. You can ask about selling without first taking on repairs or clearing the contents.

An appointed personal representative may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants power of sale. If the will does not grant that authority, the representative generally must ask the probate court for an order authorizing the sale. The will, appointment, court order, and title determine who may sign and what steps remain. Read Arkansas estate-sale law, Title 28, Chapter 49 or the Arkansas Code and Constitution.
The Arkansas Real Property Transfer Tax applies to a deed or other writing conveying real property. For transactions exceeding $100, the rate is $3.30 per $1,000 of actual consideration. See the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration's Real Property Transfer Tax guidance.
Mortgage payoffs, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Arkansas Real Property Transfer Tax.

Questions about an inherited Cabot house
Inherited property questions
Can an inherited Arkansas house be sold before probate is finished?
An appointed personal representative may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants power of sale. Without that authority, the representative generally must ask the probate court for an order authorizing the sale. The will, appointment, court order, and title determine who may sign and what steps remain.
Who can sign for an inherited house?
The appointed personal representative—the person handling the estate—may sell before the estate closes when the will grants power of sale. Without that authority, the representative generally needs an order from the probate court. The appointment, will, any court order, and title determine who can sign for this sale.
Do I have to put the house in my own name before selling it?
You can sell in the estate's name once the estate is opened — no need to put the house in your own name first. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.
Do I need to clean out or repair the inherited house?
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You do not have to haul away the belongings that remain in the house to ask about selling it to us.
