7 Ways We Take Care of You – Probate and Trust Home Sales

You take a big weight off your shoulders just by listing with the Sanborn Team. Here are 7 ways we make your probate or trust sale as smooth as possible.

 1. We’re Probate & Trust Experts

Probate and trust sales are very different from standard home sales and shouldn’t be handled by a normal listing agent. They involve specific rules and procedures that require real experience to navigate correctly.

2. We Simplify the Process

This process is intricate and extensive. That’s why we’ve built a very organized system that covers every last detail. You never have to feel overwhelmed, because we just tackle every little step, one at a time.


3. There’s a Solution for Every Problem

You may look at the following problems and think, “how are we ever going to sell this house?”

  • Hoarding-level clutter
  • Years of deferred maintenance
  • Safety hazards on the property

After 30 years in this business, we’ve overcome just about every problem you can think of. There’s always a trusted vendor to call, a protocol to follow, or the probate code tells us exactly what to do.


4. We Clear Obstacles for You

The “unknown” can be the most stressful part of the executor/trustee experience. We proactively find and solve any problems that might slow your sale. Instead of worrying about the unexpected, you can rest assured we will find any problem that needs solving.


5. We Work Seamlessly With Others

Probate and trust sales pass through many hands before they close – attorneys, fiduciaries, title officers, escrow officers, the courts. These people love working with us because we are extremely organized and give them exactly what they need. This speeds up the process and saves you money.


6. Constant Communication

You will always know what’s happening and what’s coming next. We’re so diligent about communication that you’ll feel in the loop if you’re down the road or on the other side of the country.


7. We Understand How You Feel

We understand how stressful the probate or trust process can be, especially if you’re dealing with it for the first time. We also understand you may be grieving the loss of a loved one while dealing with the family dynamics that come with that.

We’ve spent decades refining this process to get you through this sale successfully with as little stress as possible.
