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.
You can tell us what the family wants to keep; you do not need to clear everything out before asking about a sale. We can discuss the contents before you decide.
Holding a house can mean continuing property taxes, insurance, utilities, upkeep, and any mortgage payments. Those carrying costs are separate from our closing-cost promise.
What happens next
- Tell us the Marion property address and what you know about the house and estate.
- We talk through the property and its contents, then give you a written offer and written terms before you commit.
- If you choose to proceed, a title company handles closing and reviews the deed and estate documents needed for the sale.
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 may keep
Compare an as-is sale with a listing estimate using your own assumptions for repairs, selling costs, and time. The calculator is an estimate, not an offer or settlement statement.

Often, yes: an inherited Indiana house may be sold before probate is finished. A court-appointed personal representative in an unsupervised estate can generally sell estate property without a separate sale order, subject to Indiana Code §§ 29-1-7.5-3(a)(25) and 29-1-7.5-2(d). A will can also give the representative power to sell under §§ 29-1-15-2 and -3. 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. Check the appointment, will, deed, and any court restrictions 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.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs. That does not pay a mortgage balance, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes; those remain separate. Questions about your personal tax situation belong with a qualified tax professional.
