Are you currently dealing with the intricacies of probate real estate in 2024 and contemplating the need for legal guidance?
As an experienced realtor specializing in probate and living trust real estate sales in California, I am here to offer valuable insights and assistance throughout the entire process.
In California, probate is a legal procedure supervised by the Superior Courts, involving tasks such as validating the deceased’s will, appraising assets, settling debts or taxes, and distributing remaining assets to beneficiaries or heirs.
Probate is a legal process
Even in the absence of a will, the probate process adheres to California probate laws. Given its intricate and time-consuming nature, the involvement of legal professionals is often recommended.
While it’s technically possible to handle a probate case without an attorney, it is crucial to comprehend the legal responsibilities involved.
To gain a deeper understanding of the complexity of probate, I invite you to watch my latest video, “Probate 2024 – Do you need an attorney?”
If you decide to represent yourself, careful consideration of fees, waiting periods, and legal responsibilities is essential.
However, opting for an attorney is a prudent choice.
Ensure to inquire about their fees upfront, covering court filing costs. The California Probate Court determines attorney fees based on the estate’s total gross value. Some attorneys may offer an a la carte fee structure, allowing you to manage specific aspects while receiving crucial legal guidance.
If you have property you would like to sell that is held in probate or a living trust, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
I will provide you with a comprehensive listing package, including a detailed Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). This will furnish you with a clear understanding of your property’s value range and the expected selling timeline.
I look forward to assisting you through the probate real estate process.
Sincerely,
