Inherited a House?
Selling a House You Inherited in Maryland, DC, or Virginia? Here's What to Do First.
Probate real estate is different from a normal home sale. The court has rules. The family has emotions. And most agents have never handled one.

Are you the Personal Representative, an heir, or an attorney?

You did not ask for this. A parent died. Now you are the personal representative, and somewhere in the middle of grief, paperwork, and court deadlines, you also have to sell a house.
Most agents will tell you to list it and hope. That is a mistake. Probate sales have their own timeline, their own disclosures, and their own risks if you get it wrong.
I have handled over 800 transactions across Maryland, DC, and Virginia. A large share of them were probate and estate sales. I wrote the book on it. This page tells you what actually happens next, whether the property sits in Montgomery County, Prince George's County, Howard County, Washington DC, Fairfax County, or Arlington County.
The Challenge
What Makes Probate Different
The court may require specific approvals before you can sell
Heirs sometimes disagree on price, timing, or whether to sell at all
The house often needs repairs nobody has budget or time for
Buyers get nervous about probate listings. The wrong agent scares off good offers.
Court procedures and timelines vary by jurisdiction. Maryland, DC, and Virginia each run this differently.
The Difference
What I Do Differently
I get you multiple offers within minutes, so you are negotiating from strength, not guessing
I coordinate directly with the estate attorney so nothing slows down in court
I know which repairs are worth doing and which ones are a waste of estate money
I keep every heir informed so disagreements do not turn into delays
I work across Maryland, DC, and Virginia probate courts, so the jurisdiction does not slow you down

Real Talk
"Here is where families lose money. They wait too long deciding. They pick an agent who has never done a probate sale. They fix the wrong things. Or they sell too fast to the first cash buyer who calls, at a price far below market. None of that has to happen to you."
