Inherited an Ericsson Home? Common Hurdles

Heirs in several states and a house near Lake Hiawatha

Siblings in different places inherited the family home and can't agree on who signs or how the proceeds get split.

Why it happens here: Homes near Lake Hiawatha and the 46th Street Blue Line station hold their appeal, but a sale still needs whoever has legal authority over the estate.

What we do: Ryan works with the personal representative, explains an inherited-home offer in writing, and the title company handles the split at closing.

Repairs you don't want to take on

Listing prep can mean TISH items, paint, floors, or a roof. An as-is sale prices the condition instead of asking you to fix it.

Tenants, leases, or belongings inside

Occupied rentals and full houses add notice, access, and cleanout questions to every step.

A date that won't move

A new job, an estate deadline, or the next home sets the calendar. The sale has to fit around it.

How an Inherited-Home Sale Works

Each step is explained before it happens, and nothing is final until you accept a written offer.

  1. Step 1: Tell us about the property

    Send the address and a few details. No cleaning or repairs needed to start.

  2. Step 2: Talk with Ryan

    A direct conversation about your goals, timing, and what you already know.

  3. Step 3: Walkthrough and records

    Condition, occupancy, and access, plus city and county records for the address.

  4. Step 4: Written offer

    Price, buyer, costs, and contingencies in one document. No obligation to accept.

  5. Step 5: Closing on your dates

    A title company handles title work, the settlement statement, and funds.
