Florida probate is stricter than most states — but that doesn't mean you're stuck. We buy inherited homes, condos, and land across Florida, work around pending probate where the law allows, and cover the costs other buyers won't touch.
Out-of-state heirs inherit Florida property every day — and quickly discover the taxes, HOA dues, insurance, and probate requirements don't pause while the family decides. We specialize in exactly these situations, and we cover curative title work at our cost.
Unlike Texas, Florida has no affidavit-of-heirship shortcut for transferring title. Most inherited real estate passes through formal or summary administration. Summary administration — faster and cheaper — is available for smaller estates or when the death was more than two years ago.
Florida homestead has unique protections and inheritance restrictions — it often passes outside the ordinary estate and can't be touched by most creditors. Whether the property was the deceased's homestead changes everything about how it sells.
Florida adopted the Uniform Partition of Heirs' Property Act, giving family co-owners appraisal and buyout rights if someone files to force a sale. We buy interests voluntarily or help the whole family sell together.
Florida sells tax certificates on delinquent properties, and after the statutory period the certificate holder can force a tax deed sale. Inherited properties with years of unpaid taxes are our specialty — we pay them off at closing.
No pressure, no obligation. Tell us your situation — taxes owed, heirs involved, deadlines — and we'll give you honest input, even if the right answer isn't selling to us.
