What Is Probate, and When Does It Apply?
Probate is the legal process that confirms a will, settles debts, and transfers ownership of property after someone passes away.
In Arizona, if the estate includes real estate and the total value is over $75,000, probate is usually required, unless the title was held in a trust or joint tenancy.
If you're the personal representative (executor), you're responsible for handling the estate, including selling the home if needed.

Gilbert Homeowners Have This to Say
Selling your home does not have to be complicated. Here's what other Gilbert homeowners have to say about us.
"Straight-up, easy to work with."
When I inherited the house from my uncle and wanted to sell, I was confused and didn't know what to expect, but Kevin made the whole process quick and painless. He was straight-up and easy to work with. I never felt pushed, and I walked away feeling good about the deal.

"Genuinely recommend."
This was nothing like dealing with agents. I've had previous not so good experiences selling with agents so I was skeptical. Imagine my shock when I found out there were no open houses, and no need for repairs. Just an offer and a quick close. I genuinely recommend Your Caring Home Buyer to anyone.

"Got an offer the same day."
I needed to sell my house in Gilbert fast, and they delivered. I got an offer the same day I called. Closed in a week. Kevin even helped me connect with movers. The whole experience was fast and satisfying.

Do You Have to Wait for Probate to Finish Before Selling?
Not always. In Arizona, the court can grant you authority to sell the home before probate is fully finalized. You'll need:
- Proof of your role as the estate's personal representative
- Approval from the court (in some cases)
- Agreement from all heirs or beneficiaries, depending on the situation
Selling during probate requires attention to the legal details, but it can be done, especially if you're working with a buyer who understands the process, such as Your Caring Home Buyer.

Why a Cash Buyer Makes Probate Sales Easier
Selling a probate home through a realtor can involve showings, delays, financing fallout, and complicated title requirements. A local cash buyer like Your Caring Home Buyer can cut through the red tape:
- No need for repairs or cleaning
- No agent commissions or closing delays
- Experience with probate paperwork
- Faster timelines with fewer moving parts
If you're already dealing with legal and family stress, avoiding inspections and buyer demands can save you time and peace of mind.

Situations Where Probate Sales Make the Most Sense
A probate sale may be the right choice if:
- The house is sitting vacant and racking up expenses
- Family members live out of town and need to sell quickly
- The home needs expensive repairs no one wants to fund
- The estate needs cash to pay off debts
In all these cases, selling direct for cash is often the fastest, least stressful option.
