How do I sell an inherited house in Rosewood if it still has to go through probate?

You can list an inherited Rosewood house, market it and even accept an offer while probate is still in process; the Court of King's Bench grant confirms the executor's authority to sell, but Saskatchewan practice allows the listing to move before that grant is finalized.

The purchase agreement simply needs a condition tied to obtaining the grant, and the buyer's lawyer will want proof of probate before removing conditions and advancing funds through the lawyer handling the file.

A straightforward application typically moves in a matter of weeks once the paperwork is complete, and the Canada Revenue Agency's deemed disposition rule means a documented valuation from around the date of death matters for the estate's tax return as well as for pricing the eventual sale.

Joel Dyck prepares that hand-reviewed valuation for Rosewood early, so the estate is not waiting on pricing once probate clears. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
