Hey, everyone. Mike Youngblood here with A+ Home Buyers, and welcome to our probate assistance video. You’re probably watching this because you received our letter in the mail or found us online. Either way, we just want to introduce ourselves and share how we can help with your probate property in Florida.
Understanding Probate
So, what is probate? I don’t want to spend too much time on this because many of you already know what it is and how it works. Plus, I’m not an attorney, and I don’t want to give you any inaccurate information. But, in general, probate is a legal process that occurs after someone passes away. It involves validating their will and distributing their assets according to the will or state law. This process often includes identifying and inventorying the deceased’s property, paying debts and taxes, and distributing the remaining assets to heirs or beneficiaries. The court oversees this process to ensure everything is handled according to the law.
Our Probate Attorney Recommendation
While I’m not a probate attorney, we do work with a great attorney in Tampa named Perry Gruman. He’s helped us with hundreds of probate cases, and he’s incredibly efficient. The great thing about Perry is that he usually charges a flat fee for probate, unlike other attorneys who charge by the hour and can rack up hefty bills. With Perry, you know upfront what you’re paying for, and it’s all straightforward. I’ll include a link to Perry’s website and his contact information in the description of this video.
How We Can Help You
Now, what can we help you with? We provide assistance and guidance in all aspects of real estate that might be involved in the probate process. We find that many beneficiaries and personal representatives of estates are not local to the property. Some are in different cities, states, or even countries, and many people have no idea about the condition of the property, whether it’s occupied or vacant, or what it’s worth. That’s where we come in.
We can essentially be your “boots on the ground.” We can visit the property, take photos and videos, perform a quick home inspection, and even provide you with a free home evaluation. This way, you and your family have all the information you need to make an informed decision about what to do with the property.
Services We Offer
Here are some of the services we provide when you work with A+ Home Buyers:
- Home Access:
If the property is locked, and you can’t get in, instead of searching for a locksmith, just call us. We’ll send our locksmith, who offers the best prices, and we’ll pass those savings on to you. - Home Inspection with Photos and Videos:
We’ll inspect the property, take detailed photos and videos of both the interior and exterior, and report everything back to you. This saves you the time and money of coming down yourself. - Estate Sale Coordination:
We work with a fantastic estate sale company that will take inventory, price everything, and handle the sale. They work on a consignment fee basis, and you can be as involved or uninvolved as you’d like. - Yard Maintenance and Home Clean Out:
If the yard is overgrown or the property needs to be cleaned out, we have landscapers and clean-out crews ready to go. This helps you avoid code violations and keeps the property in good condition. - Roofing, Plumbing, Electric, and AC Vendors:
When you work with A+ Home Buyers, you gain access to our trusted vendors, saving you the hassle of searching for reliable service providers. - Free Home Evaluation:
We’ll underwrite the deal for you and let you know what the property is worth in its current condition. We’re experienced in this area, and we’re also licensed realtors, so we can assist with the sale of the property. - Property Management:
We can manage the entire process for you, from home inspections to repairs and everything in between, saving you time, energy, and stress.
Your Options
Depending on the condition of the home, you’ll have a few different options:
- Option 1: If the home is in great shape and your family decides to keep it as a rental, we can help you determine the appropriate rental price. We can also refer you to a property management company that handles everything from pricing to repairs.
- Option 2: If the house is in great shape but you prefer to sell it on the open market, we can help with that as well. We offer a competitive commission structure and can manage the entire sales process.
- Option 3: If the house needs significant repairs, we can offer you a cash deal. We love buying houses and can close in as little as seven days. For more information about our cash offer process, just click the link on our homepage.
No matter which option you choose, we can help facilitate and manage the entire process for you.
