Who does estate property Inheritance affect?

Estate property inheritance affects individuals who have inherited or are planning to inherit real estate from a deceased family member or loved one. It is a process that involves transferring ownership of the property to the rightful heirs or beneficiaries. Clearing Title for a Legally Smooth Sale: Clearing title is a crucial step in the process of selling an inherited property. When a property is inherited, it may have an unclear or clouded title, which can create legal complications and hinder the sale. Our real estate company specializes in assisting clients with clearing titles, ensuring that the property can be legally sold without any issues.

We work with real estate attorneys through this process. Although probate is not the only way to clear property in Texas.

  • Our real estate company works closely with experienced attorneys who specialize in estate law. We can collaborate with them to resolve any legal complexities that may arise during the title-clearing process. A lot of the time we can help heirs do this process faster and for less money.

Understanding Estates

An estate refers to the total assets, including real estate, owned by an individual at the time of their death. It encompasses all their possessions, debts, and legal rights. There are two types of estates:

Estate with a will

When a person passes away and leaves a legally valid will, their estate is distributed according to their wishes as outlined in the will. The will typically designates an executor who is responsible for managing the estate and ensuring the distribution of assets to the beneficiaries. It’s important for heirs to understand that a Will is not a legal Will until it goes through probate and is signed off by a judge.

Estate without a will (instate)

In cases where a person dies without a will, the estate is distributed according to the laws of intestate succession. These laws vary depending on the jurisdiction and typically prioritize spouses, children, and other close relatives as beneficiaries. 

Tree of Life Real Estate Group LLC can help heirs through the entire process and make sure they are able to successfully sell the properties they have inherited legally. We make the process of inheritance smooth because we work alongside Real Estate attorneys and Title Companies.

Our Reviews

  • Ejane in San Antonio, TX

    “Chris is amazing to work with. He found our dream home within 24 hours of contacting him. The reason why?? Because he paid attention to our wish list and lined us up with appropriate listings. He also negotiated the final sale through the plethora of details on our behalf: open permits, and historic district regulations. He is a great communicator and his knowledge of the real estate market in San Antonio is outstanding. We couldn't have done this without him!”

  • Stacy in Kyle, TX

    “Anastacia helped us buy our new home in Kyle. It was a new build that had never been lived in. She was very knowledgeable about contracts as well as the construction side. She helped us with when needing to read and sign many things and she was there when we did inspections and walk throughs ensuring our home was ready for us to move in. Anastacia was a joy to work with. She is hardworking and was always available when needed.”

  • Pugh in Seguin, TX

    “Chris did a great job! His knowledge of the processes were really beneficial during the negotiation of the sale. We would contact Chris again if we needed to buy or sell another home.”

  • Laura in San Antonio, TX

    “I could sum up my review easily just by saying that Ana Sandoval helped me to find a property off-market in the midst of this intense and frenzied market. I think that truly speaks for itself. However, I also want to mention how she made herself available on a daily basis; her responsiveness was off the charts. She helped me to obtain a fantastic deal, then she negotiated down the asking price and negotiated far better terms. Throughout the journey of house hunting, Ana was brutally honest in a way that truly benefitted me as a buyer…”

  • Michael in San Antonio, TX

    “Anna has been extremely helpful in increasing my understanding of the current market and selling my home!!! Very responsive and highly recommended!!! I will definitely use again in the future!!!”
