Probate property sale in Chester

Property Law Online acts for executors and administrators selling an estate property in Chester. The executors or administrators obtain the grant themselves; we run the sale conveyancing, and timing is agreed with the executors, the buyer and the buyer's lender.

An estate property in Chester can be marketed before the grant of probate or letters of administration is issued, but the sale cannot complete without it. Executors may exchange contracts before the grant, with completion waiting for it; administrators may not exchange until the grant issues. Timing is agreed with the executors, the buyer and the buyer's lender.

We prepare the sale pack, flag the empty-property practicalities the executors need to deal with (insurance conditions, utilities, council tax with Cheshire West and Chester Council), and keep the buyer's conveyancer moving throughout.
