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.
If there are belongings you want to keep, we can discuss them with you and state what remains in the written terms. You do not need to sort, repair, clean, or empty the house before selling to us.
While the estate owns the house, carrying costs such as property taxes, insurance, utilities, and upkeep can continue. Those costs are separate from the sale price and closing-cost promise. The house may still have mattered to your family; you do not need to decide what to keep before talking through a sale.

The appointed personal representative can generally sell estate real estate during administration without a separate court order, subject to the will and any court restrictions. A state or county public administrator needs court approval to sell estate real estate. Being named in the will alone does not give you authority to act for the estate; the appointment papers and deed help determine who can sign and what closing requires.
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.
For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan’s state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of the property’s value at sale, or part of $500. The county tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. State and county exemptions are separate, so the property, sale value, and any exemption need to be checked for the actual sale. State law generally makes the seller responsible.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes.
Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate from that promise.
