When a loved one passes away, their estate often goes through probate — the legal process of settling debts and distributing assets. If a house is part of the estate, selling it can become a complicated, drawn-out process.
At Smooth Closing, we specialize in buying probate properties as-is for cash in Austin, helping families simplify what is often an overwhelming situation.
Why Probate Makes Selling Difficult
Probate often involves:
- Court approval before the property can be sold.
- Multiple heirs, who may not agree on what to do with the home.
- Outstanding debts or liens tied to the estate.
- Older homes that need expensive repairs before listing.
Traditional sales in probate can take months — time that many families don’t have.
How Cash Sales Solve Probate Challenges
Selling to a cash buyer like Smooth Closing helps families by:
- ✅ Buying the home as-is, even if outdated or in poor condition.
- ✅ Coordinating with probate attorneys and title companies.
- ✅ Closing quickly once court approval is complete.
- ✅ Eliminating realtor commissions and repairs.
Example Case
We recently helped a family in Round Rock sell their late father’s home during probate. With five heirs spread across different states, listing with a realtor would have been a nightmare. Instead, we made a cash offer, handled communication with the title company, and closed in 12 days once the court approved the sale.
