Your Valuation is done - now what?

Sale? Transfer? Clearance? Insurance? Renovation?
Don't worry. We can help.

Getting the valuation number is a good start and helps with probate paperwork - an important step.

Now you have this property that you are responsible for. That can be a heavy weight to carry when you are going through the grieving process. We understand.

We are here to help. We can sell the property for you or transfer it to the new owner - but it's more than that.

Inherited properties often need:

  • Comprehensive clearance
  • Regular inspections
  • Maintenance
  • Lock changes
  • Drain down
  • Insurance
  • Redecoration
  • Repairs
  • Even full refurbishment

This can be overwhelming. That's where a probate property expert like Sail Homes steps in to ease your worries.

Why choose Sail?

Probate property is different from standard property. We built our service around that.

Unlike a one-size-fits-all estate agent we are experts in dealing with inherited property:

  • We have a national network of local agents to do the selling, complete with local knowledge about schools, local transport, community, etc.
  • We have a national team of trusted property contractors who can clear, maintain and renovate the property for you, if needed
  • We can get it insured for you under specialist empty-property cover.

This has been a huge help to hundreds of our clients over the years. You can see testimonials here.

And the best part: much of this work can often be done with no upfront cost to you. We can usually defer costs until completion so you pay from the sale proceeds when the property sells through us, subject to approval.


Once the executor has clear authority to act, you can prepare the property while probate is ongoing. Your solicitor will confirm what is appropriate in your situation. We can even list the property on the market while waiting for probate. So by the time it's granted, the property can have a buyer lined up and is ready to be sold quickly.

Call us to discuss your needs. No obligation. It’s a quick call.

We’ll tell you what you can do now, what can wait, and what it’s likely to cost.
