We buy the house and handle the contents

Sell an inherited house without cleanout, repairs, or hauling away a lifetime of belongings — we take it as it is. Keep the belongings your family wants; what remains can stay with the house.

While the house is waiting to sell, bills for utilities, insurance, property taxes, upkeep, and any mortgage can keep coming. A sale can end those ongoing house costs after closing.

What happens next

We start with a conversation about the Westfield house, its condition, the belongings your family wants to keep, and where things stand with the estate. You can call while you are sorting out the paperwork.

You get a written offer and written terms before you commit, and we close through a title company.

No agent commissions when you sell to us. No fees. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.

Close as fast as 7 days when title and closing details allow.

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.

Compare what you might keep

Compare a written offer with a possible listing using costs that fit the house and your situation.

Indiana estate rules

Who can sign?

In an unsupervised Indiana estate, a court-appointed personal representative — the person appointed to handle the estate — can generally sell estate property without a separate sale order. A will can also give the representative power to sell. If neither route applies, a court order may be needed. Read Indiana Code § 29-1-7.5-3(a)(25) and § 29-1-7.5-2(d) and Indiana Code §§ 29-1-15-2 and -3.

A valid transfer-on-death deed recorded before the owner’s death may pass the house to the named beneficiary outside probate. See Indiana Code § 32-17-14-11.
