When someone passes away, their property may need to go through a court-supervised process called probate. The court validates the will (if there is one), and the executor is authorized to handle the sale of assets, including real estate. I can help you list and sell the property while ensuring the process aligns with legal requirements.
Not necessarily. Some properties can bypass probate if they are jointly owned, held in a trust, or have a designated beneficiary. I recommend consulting with an attorney to confirm the legal status of the property.
The timeline varies based on factors like court approval, property condition, and market demand. On average, it can take a few months to a year. I work to streamline the process and secure competitive offers as quickly as possible.
Yes! Selling a home “as is” is often a good option for families who want to avoid repairs or renovations. I can connect you with cash buyers for a fast and fair sale.
Selling a home during divorce requires a neutral, professional approach to ensure fairness and efficiency. I provide an unbiased evaluation of your home’s value, align the sale process with legal requirements, and offer creative solutions to meet both parties’ needs. With guidance from Amado Hernandez, former president of the Inland Valley Association of Realtors (IVAR), I leverage a vast network of cash buyers to secure competitive offers tailored to your timeline and priorities.
When there’s disagreement about selling, it’s essential to have a professional who can mediate and provide clarity. I work closely with attorneys and mediators to navigate disputes and offer solutions that meet everyone’s needs. Using a wide-reaching cash buyer network, we can secure offers that align with specific requirements, whether it’s speed, price, or minimal contingencies.
The division of proceeds depends on your divorce agreement or court order. My role is to ensure the home sells for the best possible price, with offers that meet your unique financial and timing needs. By leveraging a comprehensive buyer network, we can streamline the sale to meet your circumstances, ensuring a smooth and fair transaction for all parties.
Yes, selling a home before finalizing a divorce is possible, but it requires careful coordination with your attorneys. I’ll work to ensure the sale aligns with legal and emotional needs, using a strategic buyer network to facilitate a fast, competitive, and low-stress sale that works for both parties.
The first step is getting pre-approved for a mortgage. This shows you how much you can afford and makes you a stronger buyer when it’s time to make an offer. I can connect you with trusted lenders to get started.
The down payment varies, but many first-time buyers qualify for programs that require as little as 3-5%. I’ll help you explore your options and find the best fit for your financial goals.
Pre-qualification is an estimate of your buying power based on basic financial information. Pre-approval is a more in-depth process where a lender verifies your finances and gives you a formal approval for a specific amount.
The timeline depends on factors like market conditions and financing, but most buyers can expect the process to take 30-60 days from the time their offer is accepted.
I’m proud to offer resources that help make homeownership more accessible, including a $10,000 grant through our partnership with Bank of America. This grant is available to buyers with a household income under $150,000 purchasing homes in census tracts with a majority Mexican or African American population. The best part? Most areas in the Inland Valley and Southern California qualify, and the grant doesn’t need to be repaid. Let’s talk about how we can get you started on your path to homeownership with these valuable resources.
