Selling a Probate Home Without an Agent? Watch This First!

Thinking about selling an inherited home by yourself? Many personal representatives or family members consider going the “For Sale by Owner” (FSBO) route because they want to save the real estate commission, which is now called compensation. But what most people don’t realize is that selling an inherited or probate home without professional help often costs the estate more money in the end.

At Horizon Real Estate, we’ve helped hundreds of executors, administrators, and trustees sell probate and trust homes in San Diego. We know how to price properties correctly, handle disclosures, prepare the home, and market to the right buyers. Our job is to protect the estate and get the best outcome for everyone involved.

If you’re the personal representative of an estate, don’t take on this process alone. The risks are too high, and the savings are often not worth it. Instead, work with a Certified Probate Real Estate Advisor who knows the process and will guide you every step of the way.
