Frequently Asked Questions

Hiring separate companies causes massive scheduling delays, fragmented communication, and higher overall costs. As licensed Realtors who also handle full-service cleanouts, we manage the entire timeline under one roof. We know exactly which items to donate, what to dispose of, and precisely how to prepare the physical house to attract the highest-paying buyers on the real estate market.

No, you do not. Many of the executors we work with live out of state. You can mail us the keys or authorize your probate attorney to grant us entry. We can manage the sorting, cleanout, deep cleaning, property staging, marketing, and the ultimate real estate sale while keeping you updated via photo, video, and digital document signing.

We prioritize a "care-first" discovery process. Before any heavy lifting begins, we search for and isolate critical financial documents, legal paperwork, and obvious family heirlooms. For items the family does not wish to keep, we coordinate donations to local charities or handle eco-friendly recycling and junk removal.

Yes, you can. If the family prefers a fast, cash transaction without any preparation, we can market the property directly to our network of real estate investors as-is. However, if your goal is to maximize the final sale price, our team can efficiently clear and prep the home to list it on the open market for top dollar.

We offer flexible options depending on the estate's financial situation. In many cases, we can restructure our fees so that the upfront cost of the cleanout and market preparation is deferred and paid directly out of the escrow proceeds at closing. This ensures the estate faces zero out-of-pocket financial strain while getting the home ready for market.

Yes, in most jurisdictions, a property can be listed and even put under contract while probate is open, provided the court-appointed personal representative or executor authorizes it. We seamlessly coordinate with your probate attorney to ensure all real estate contracts align perfectly with court timelines and state laws.

Absolutely. We regularly coordinate with probate and estate planning attorneys throughout Dane County. We ensure all real estate listing contracts, property disclosures, and closing timelines align perfectly with the requirements of the Wisconsin court system and your specific legal counsel.
