Sell an Inherited House
Inheriting a property is often as stressful as it is unexpected — especially if you live in another city, the home needs work, or multiple family members are involved. We buy inherited houses as-is and work directly with your estate lawyer so the process stays simple.
Selling an inherited home in Canada
Before an inherited property can be sold, the estate usually needs a grant of probate (unless the home was held in joint tenancy). Once the executor has authority to sell, you have two paths: prepare and list the property on the open market, or sell directly to a buyer like us.
Why families choose a direct sale
- No cleanout required. Take the belongings that matter; we handle the rest.
- No repairs. Older estate homes often need updates that eat into the sale price anyway.
- One closing date the whole family can plan around. No conditional offers or financing surprises.
- We coordinate with your estate lawyer so paperwork and trust payouts run through the proper channels.
Capital gains on inherited property
If the home was the deceased's principal residence, the estate generally doesn't pay capital gains up to the date of death, but any appreciation afterward may be taxable. Speak with an accountant — and note that a faster sale usually means a smaller taxable gain window.
