Inherited & probate property

Inherited a Jacksonville house you don't want?

Inheriting a house in Jacksonville — whether it sits in Sherwood Forest and Westside or anywhere else in Duval County — is rarely simple. There may be a mortgage still attached, property taxes piling up, an out-of-state family, and a building full of a lifetime's belongings. In Florida, an inherited property usually has to clear probate before title can transfer. Florida homestead laws provide substantial property tax exemptions and strong protections against forced sale, making it one of the most debtor-friendly states. A traditional listing means clearing it out, making repairs, and waiting months for a buyer — time and money many families don't want to spend on a house they never planned to keep.

How a cash sale removes the hard parts

Going straight to a cash buyer skips all of it. We buy the Jacksonville house as-is, which means no repairs, no cleanout, and no showings. You keep what you want and leave the rest. Our offer typically lands at 70–85% of after-repair value, there are zero fees or commissions, and we cover the closing costs. You pick the closing date, and we close in as few as 7 days once the estate has the authority to sell. Owners in Sherwood Forest, Westside and Middleburg and the wider Duval County reach us for the same reason: a real number, fast, on their street.

Clearing probate without delay

In most cases the estate must move through probate in Duval County before title can change hands in Florida. That doesn't have to stall things: we can agree on a price up front and have everything staged so we close the moment the personal representative is cleared to sign. Every closing runs through a licensed local title company or real estate attorney, so the chain of title is clean and recorded properly.

What you pay (nothing)

Nothing. There's no fee to request a real cash offer within 24 hours, no obligation to accept it, and zero fees or commissions if you do. We buy throughout the Greater Jacksonville area, so a local team handles the Jacksonville closing. We're cash buyers, not agents or attorneys — show our written offer to your lawyer or accountant before you sign. If the number works for your family, we close on your schedule; if it doesn't, you walk away at no cost.

Questions

Sell an inherited house in Jacksonville — answered

Can I sell an inherited house in Jacksonville before probate is finished?
Usually the estate has to clear probate in Duval County before title can transfer in Florida, but we can start the process, agree on a price, and be ready to close the moment the personal representative has authority to sell. We've closed many inherited Jacksonville homes this way.
Do I have to clean out or repair the inherited Jacksonville house first?
No. We buy inherited homes as-is, including any furniture, belongings, or junk left behind. Take what matters to you and leave the rest — there's nothing to fix, stage, or haul away.
What if several heirs own the property together?
That's common. Everyone on title (or the estate's personal representative) signs at closing. We're used to coordinating multiple heirs on a single Jacksonville sale and can work around schedules and out-of-state signers.
How much will you pay for an inherited Jacksonville house?
Offers typically land between 70–85% of after-repair value, based on recent comparable sales and the home's condition. There are zero fees or commissions, so the number you accept is the number you net.
Are there taxes when I sell an inherited Florida house?
Inherited property generally receives a stepped-up cost basis, and documentary stamp tax of $0.70 per $100 paid by seller. Miami-Dade has a higher rate of $0.60 per $100 for single-family. We're cash buyers, not tax advisors, so confirm specifics with your accountant — but you're welcome to run our written offer past them before you sign anything.
