Before deciding whether to sell

Start with authority, not an offer

The correct next step depends on ownership, authority to administer the estate, probate, liabilities, occupancy and the wishes of those involved.

  1. Confirm authority and ownership. A beneficiary does not automatically have authority to sell.
  2. Value the estate. A tax or probate estimate is not a guaranteed sale price.
  3. Protect the property. Check insurance, occupancy, security, mortgage and ongoing costs.
  4. Compare net outcomes. Consider fees, conditions, timing and certainty, not only the headline price.
Probate checkpoint: GOV.UK advises against making financial plans or putting property on the market until probate has been obtained. First check whether probate is required.
