Probate, Trusts & Real Estate: What You Need to Know Before the Sale

Probate, Trusts & Real Estate: What You Need to Know Before the Sale

Real estate transactions involving probate, trusts, wills, or inherited property can quickly become more complicated than a traditional sale. Understanding who has the authority to sell, what legal steps must happen first, and how the property is titled can help avoid delays and surprises.

Join us for an informative and practical session designed for Realtors, lenders, title professionals, attorneys, insurance agents, investors, and everyone who supports the real estate industry. Our guest speakers, Josephine Hamel of DKMO Law and Ben Weaver of 23 Legal, will explain how probate and estate planning can impact the ownership and sale of real estate.

You'll learn how to:

• Understand how probate can impact the timing and sale of real estate.
• Determine when a beneficiary of a will or trust may be able to sell inherited property.
• Recognize who has the legal authority to sell property during probate or through a trust.
• Understand the differences between a trust and a Transfer on Death Instrument.
• Identify potential issues earlier to help keep a real estate transaction moving forward.

This session is more than an overview of probate and estate planning. It's an opportunity to ask experienced real estate attorneys questions, discuss real-world situations, and gain practical knowledge that can help you better serve clients when real estate and estate planning intersect.
