Disclosure works differently too. An executor who never lived in the property often has limited firsthand knowledge of its history, so a thorough home inspection, typically $400 to $600, carries more weight here than the seller disclosure statement itself.
Multiple heirs can also mean multiple approvals are needed for any offer or condition change, which is worth asking about directly rather than assuming one signature settles it, since a delay on that front is common and not a sign anything is wrong.
A patient, well-documented offer usually serves a buyer better than an aggressive one on an estate file, since the executor is working through a legal process, not a personal decision. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
