What to have ready

The first call is easier if you have the person's date of death, last address, any will or trust you found, the names of known family members, and a rough list of assets and debts. If the estate includes a house, have the address and explain whether it is occupied, vacant, damaged, behind on taxes, or likely to be sold.

If the estate includes a house

Middle America Homes buys inherited houses as-is, in any condition. This is our service, separate from the attorneys listed on this page.

You do not have to wait until probate is finished to talk with us. Lining up a buyer early can make the next steps easier, even if the house is not ready to sell. We can help research and identify unknown heirs. Depending on the sale, Middle America Homes may also cover property expenses and, in some cases, probate attorney fees. Call us or use the form. We will tell you plainly what may work for your situation.
