Are you struggling through the probate process?

Unfortunately, probate is often more complex and convoluted than it needs to be.

But at Evergreen Home Buyers, we've helped homeowners in almost every situation (including probate) to navigate challenges and sell their home.

So we thought we'd share some information with you about the probate process so that you know what to expect.

Here's how it works...

1. File To Start Probate First, you'll need to submit a petition to the court to get the probate process started. You'll need to file a valid and notarized will in addition to your application which indicates that you're the legal executor of the estate. The court will then schedule a hearing to approve your petition. If approved, the court will open the probate case.

2. Provide Notice As required by most courts, you'll need to mail a notice that the estate is in probate to all creditors, beneficiaries, and heirs. You might even need to publish a notice in the newspaper, depending on your state.

3. Determine Assets & Pay Debt You'll also need to compile all of the estate's assets and determine their value. Then you'll need to analyze and pay debt.

4. Distribute Remaining Assets Finally, after paying debts, you can distribute remaining assets to the appropriate beneficiaries.

5. Hire An Attorney If this all sounds like too much, then you might consider hiring an attorney to help you through the process.
