What we do with the house and its contents
We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is.
We can talk through access and the contents so you can tell us which belongings the family wants to keep. You do not have to empty the house before asking about a sale.
While the estate holds the house, bills can include mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance, utilities, and upkeep. You may decide to keep the house; if you choose to sell, an as-is offer gives you another option to compare.

Nevada estate rules, signing authority, and transfer tax
Who can sign for the estate?
The personal representative is the person the court authorizes to act for the estate. If there is a will, the court issues letters testamentary to the executor; without a will, it issues letters of administration to an administrator. That person must qualify before signing for the estate. Being a relative or being named in a will is not enough by itself. See Nevada's rule on qualifying as personal representative and its administrator appointment rules.
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.
Does a house sale need court confirmation?
In most estates, the court confirms the sale before title passes. Notice is usually published, and a private sale generally needs an appraisal from the past year. At the confirmation hearing, the court may consider a qualifying higher bid. Nevada's probate-sale rules cover notice, appraisal, confirmation, and higher bids.
With full authority under independent administration, a personal representative may sell without court confirmation after required notice; an interested person's objection sends the sale back to court. A sale below 90% of appraised value needs written consent from all interested people and court confirmation. A court can order summary administration for an estate worth $500,000 or less after mortgages and liens. That can avoid confirmation, but notice rules for sales still apply. See Nevada's independent-administration rules and summary-administration rules.
A court can also set aside an estate worth $150,000 or less without a full administration under the small-estate procedure. If a court order gives the house to heirs, they can sign as owners once the order gives them the property; the personal representative records that order with the county recorder. See the state's order-of-distribution rule.
Clark County real property transfer tax
Clark County's rate is $2.55 for each $500 of value or part of $500, generally using the full purchase price. Nevada law makes the buyer and seller each responsible for the whole tax. The contract can say who pays, but the county can collect from either one. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Nevada's real property transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. Read the Nevada transfer-tax law or the Nevada Department of Taxation guidance.

Can I sell an inherited Las Vegas house before probate is finished?
Often, yes, once someone has court authority to sign and has qualified as the estate’s personal representative. In many estates, the court confirms the sale before title passes. Full authority under independent administration or a court-ordered summary administration can change that route, but notice requirements still matter. The estate file and title review determine which path applies.
Who can sign for a Nevada estate?
The personal representative is the person authorized to act for the estate. If there is a will, the court issues letters testamentary to the executor; without a will, the court issues letters of administration to an administrator. That person must qualify before signing for the estate. Being a relative or being named in a will does not by itself give someone authority to sell the house.
Do I have to put the inherited 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. 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.
Does every Nevada estate sale need court confirmation?
In most estates, the court confirms a house sale before title passes. With full authority under independent administration, a personal representative may sell without confirmation after notice; an objection sends the sale back to court. A court can also order summary administration for an estate worth $500,000 or less after mortgages and liens, which can avoid confirmation while sale-notice rules still apply. The court and estate file determine the route.
What transfer tax applies when a Clark County house sells?
Clark County's real property transfer tax is $2.55 for each $500 of value or part of $500; value is generally the full purchase price. By law, buyer and seller are each responsible for the whole tax, though the contract can say who pays and the county can collect from either. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Nevada's real property transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.
Do I need to clean out or repair an inherited house before selling?
Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is. We buy houses as-is, in any condition — no repairs, no cleaning, no cleanout required to sell to us. You can tell us which belongings the family wants to keep.
