Understanding the Probate Process
If a loved one left you a home, the first step is understanding probate laws in Florida. Probate is the legal process for transferring ownership of a deceased person’s property.
✔ Is Probate Required? If the home is in a trust, you may avoid probate. If not, it must go through Florida’s probate system.
✔ Who Has Legal Rights? Multiple heirs? You’ll need to agree on the next steps.
✔ Are There Debts on the Home? Outstanding mortgages or liens must be handled before selling.
Should You Keep, Rent, or Sell the Home?
🏡 Keep It: If you want to live in the home, consider affordability—property taxes, maintenance, and insurance costs.
🏡 Rent It: Turning it into an investment property can be profitable, but are you ready to be a landlord?
🏡 Sell It: A great option if you don’t want the responsibility. You can sell the home traditionally or for cash.
