Becoming an executor often happens during an emotional time, and many people suddenly find themselves responsible for selling a property without knowing where to start.
The first thing to know is this: nothing needs to happen overnight.
Typically, the process includes:
- Confirming legal authority
- Securing the property
- Understanding home condition
- Deciding on preparation and timing
- Selling in a way that protects estate value
- Executors often carry unnecessary pressure.
- Taking calm, informed steps usually produces better results than rushing.
