What we do with the house and its contents
Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is.
You can keep the belongings you want. We can review the house with the remaining contents in place, so there is no cleanout or hauling required to sell to us. You can also choose to keep the house while you consider your options.
While a house remains in the estate, carrying costs such as property taxes, utilities, insurance, and upkeep can continue. We can talk through an as-is sale without assuming the house or its contents are unwanted.
What happens next
Start with a conversation about the Frankfort address, the house’s condition, its contents, and where the estate process stands. We will talk through the property and the sale steps, then give you a written cash offer. Written offer and written terms before you commit; title-company closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate.
Signing from another location
Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
What you keep
Compare the possible net from listing with an as-is sale using the Frankfort Home Sale Net Proceeds Calculator. Adjust the assumptions to fit the house and the costs you expect.

Often, yes—you may be able to sell before probate is finished. In an unsupervised estate, a court-appointed personal representative can generally sell estate property without a separate sale order, subject to the law and any court restrictions. A will can also give the representative power to sell. If neither route applies, a court order may be needed.
A valid transfer-on-death deed recorded before the owner’s death may pass the house to the named beneficiary outside probate. Who can sign depends on the appointment, will, deed, and any court restrictions. Check those records with the title company or a qualified Indiana attorney before setting a closing date.
We help coordinate the sale, but we do not provide legal advice. The title company or a qualified attorney can confirm who has authority to sign for the estate.
The Clinton County Assessor is an official county reference for property-assessment questions. The seller’s share of current property taxes is property-specific and remains separate from our closing-cost promise.

Inherited Property Questions
Can I sell an inherited Indiana house before probate is finished?
Often, yes. In an unsupervised estate, a court-appointed personal representative can generally sell estate property without a separate sale order, subject to the law and any court restrictions. A will can also give the representative power to sell. If neither route applies, a court order may be needed. Check the appointment, will, deed, and court restrictions before setting a closing date.
Do I have to put the inherited house in my own name before selling?
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.
What happens to belongings left in the house?
Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is. You can take the belongings you want to keep; you do not need to clear out the house before asking us about a sale.
Can I sign if I live outside Indiana?
Sell from anywhere in the country — we can send a notary to you, and you don't have to attend settlement or even visit the property.
Who can confirm who has authority to sign for the estate?
We help coordinate the sale, but we do not provide legal advice. The title company or a qualified attorney can confirm who has authority to sign for the estate.
Do you pay the mortgage, liens, or property taxes too?
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. Your mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes remain separate and are handled according to the property-specific closing file.
