The Executor’s Guide to Selling Inherited Property on Staten Island—Without the Headaches

by Hal Blake

Why Selling an Inherited Property Can Feel Overwhelming

Being named the executor of an estate is a serious responsibility—and often a heavy one. Between legal filings, managing personal property, and handling grieving family members, adding the sale of a probate home to your to-do list can feel impossible.

But here’s the good news:
You don’t have to go through it alone.

At Your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty Advisors LLC, we’ve helped dozens of Staten Island families navigate this exact situation. With our Certified Probate Experts and full-service solutions, we make selling inherited real estate far simpler, faster, and less emotionally draining.

Step 1: Secure and Assess the Property

Before anything else, ensure the inherited property is secured. Change the locks if necessary and document the condition of the home. Utilities may need to remain on if the property is being shown or repaired.

Our team can connect you with trusted local contractors, locksmiths, and property inspectors to get this done right away.

Step 2: Get a Professional Probate Property Valuation

Pricing inherited property correctly is crucial to avoiding delays and disagreements.

We provide an accurate valuation report and expert recommendations to maximize the sale price—whether you sell on the open market or take advantage of our as-is cash offer network.

Step 3: Coordinate with Family and Heirs

One of the most delicate parts of selling an inherited home is achieving family consensus. Differing opinions among heirs can lead to conflict and delays.

As Certified Probate Experts, we’re trained to facilitate communication with heirs, ensuring everyone is on the same page—minimizing friction and moving the process forward smoothly.

Step 4: Organize and Handle Personal Property

Estate cleanouts can be emotionally difficult and logistically overwhelming. That’s why we coordinate:

  • Estate sales and auctions

  • Donation of remaining personal belongings

  • Full clean-out crews to prep the home for sale

You don’t have to lift a finger—we take care of it all.

Step 5: Prepare the Home for Market (or Not)

Depending on the home’s condition and your timeline, we offer two paths:

Option A: Traditional Sale

We’ll help you prep the home, make repairs if needed, and market it to the widest possible audience—including our exclusive Buyers-in-Waiting Database of prequalified buyers looking for Staten Island homes now.

Option B: Fast “As-Is” Cash Sale

Need speed or don’t want to deal with repairs? We’ll present instant offers from vetted cash buyers and investors—so you can sell the property quickly and for fair market value without showings, open houses, or contingencies.
