It's Never Easy Handling Probate Issues.
Whether you are a newly appointed executor, personal representative, or an attorney that has been retained by the estate or appointed by the court, it’s an absolute certainty that there will be difficult moments ahead.
First, there are usually the obvious emotional aspects of the situation. Often, the person chosen as the executor or personal representative to deal with the deceased person’s probate issues is also someone who is still grieving over the loss of that loved one or friend. Then, that same person is faced with the added challenge of having to make many decisions in areas in which they have no previous experience.
These decisions must also be made with the added pressure of knowing that whatever the results of these decisions are, they will likely be very closely scrutinized and (all too frequently) second-guessed by family and/or friends.
Couple this with the legitimate concern that everything must be handled “legally and properly” as well as all the horror stories about probates that have gone badly and the pressure and stress really begins to multiply.
Even if there is no real estate in the matters to be disposed of by the personal representative or executor, this is a big undertaking and when Real Estate is involved, the load is compounded.
I Can Help Make This Tough Task Far Less Stressful!
Be aware that no one should ever tell you that being an Executor or Personal Representative can truly be stress-free because decisions will indeed have to be made.
Let me be your experienced Certified Real Estate Probate Specialist and make sure that you are always well-informed in regard to these decisions – especially when they pertain to Real Estate. I will also help you with some of the difficult conversations you may have to have with family members and other heirs. If you haven’t yet secured the services of a competent probate attorney, I can help you choose one whose good work I know and am comfortable recommending.
I’ll help you at every step along the way and do everything possible to steer you clear of the minefields. Of course, you’ll still have to make some interesting choices, but having an advisor by your side makes the task significantly less lonely.

What About Selling The Real Property That's Part Of The Estate ?
Do You Need To Maximize The Proceeds To The Heirs?
This is not a trick question! Your duty to the Estate and to the Heirs is to get the most money when selling assets of the Estate.
BUT - There is a balance. Most of the time, the Executor / Executrix have minimal funds to work with for repairs, trash out, back taxes, mortgage payments, insurance, and more. These are the basics of securing and protecting the Estate assets.
When maximum revenue is the focus, we’ll make certain the property is not only listed properly but marketed aggressively and intelligently to assure maximum exposure. We’ll make sure you know what sale of the property might bring in today's current market, based on Comparable Market Analysis of similar SOLD homes in the area.
If speed to close a sale is the goal, then we’ll help you determine any possible repairs (if any) that might add more to the final selling price than their cost – in other words, the greatest return on your investment repair dollars. Sometimes, it is not possible to any repairs past securing the property, and Selling AS-IS, with no repairs.
Be aware that all too often, ill-informed sellers spend far too much on repairs that do not provide a dollar per dollar return in the final sale price. This is where my experience, preparation, and savvy marketing skills come into play. If you’d like some general information, please review our list of

What If You Are A Probate Attorney?
I work especially well in these situations. Typically the attorney of record has one of two roles. They are either appointed to the task by the court or selected by the family or executor / personal advisor. If you’ve been court-appointed, then your role is usually focused strictly on the legal issues regarding any transactions and dispersal of assets.
However, if you are retained by the family or the executor / personal representative, your role usually extends to include a more advisory capacity as well. In either case, we will at all times keep you well-informed about any aspect of the process in which we are involved – especially when it comes to fielding offers on the real estate.
In some cases, the family or executor / personal advisor will want ALL aspects of the probate to be handled completely by the attorney. In these cases, we have a mutual Client. I will handle the process of disposition of the property, and work with the Attorney should there be some title issues or items that need legal work.
I have focused my efforts on working in this unique area of Real Estate because I feel it allows me to not only perform a much-needed service to people in times of great stress, but also because it is a place where I can differentiate my level of expertise from others who are not as focused in this niche.
I’ve taken the time to, and made the investment to, properly prepare to assist you.
