Does Jacqueline Screeton work with sellers of inherited homes?
Yes. Inherited homes, probate sales, and trust sales are Jacqueline’s specialty. She is a Probate and Trust Specialist and helps families with valuation, clean-out, repairs, probate or trust requirements, and the sale itself.
What is a probate sale in California?
A probate sale is the sale of a home owned by someone who has passed away without the property being held in a trust. The court-appointed executor or administrator sells the home, sometimes with court confirmation. Jacqueline guides executors through the notices, timelines, and paperwork involved in Orange County probate sales.
How is a trust sale different from a probate sale?
When a home is held in a living trust, the successor trustee can usually sell it without court involvement, which is typically faster than probate. Jacqueline works with trustees and their attorneys to coordinate the sale.
