Challenges that are possible during the probate process:
So the first big decision is ofter what do you do with the real estate involved? Should you sell it or keep it? That is not always an easy decision. Naturally emotions and memories are strong at this time and can cause confution.
Here are a few things to consider:
1. Will any of the family members want to keep the property? Will you be able to use it or are you holding onto the memories? If you are out of state, will you use it enough to justify the expenses?
2. How does the will deal with estate? Are the proceeds to be split?
3. Do you want top dollar for the property or is a fast sale most important?
4. If you decide to sell, how will you prepare the property? Do you need to have repairs made or contents taken care of prior to closing?
