When you’ve inherited a house from a loved one, there are a lot of things to take into account. As the estate’s benefactor, you’re presented with two options regarding what you could do with the house— keep it or sell it.
There can be many costs associated with an inherited property. How much equity is in the home? Was the mortgage paid off?
What type of property taxes are in the area? What condition is it in? If you decide to move into a house that has damage, you must repair it before the home can be insured. Unfortunately, this bill will be left for you to take care of.
If the mortgage has not been paid off, it could result in forcing you to pay a higher payment than your budget allows. Before you decide, figure out what sort of payments you’ll have to pay on the home and whether or not you can afford it.
Selling the Inherited House?
It is common for the property’s benefactors to decide on selling the home and splitting the profit amongst them. While it’s likely this is the easiest option, it can come with costs of its own depending on the path of sale.
Aside from any repairs, heating and electricity, insurance, and property taxes must be paid even if no one is living in the home, to ensure the house will sell, general upkeep including yard work must be sustained. Costing you time and money.
Also remember, if you sell the house using a real estate agent, it is not free. In fact, it is typical for a realtor to charge 6 percent of the sale for a commission fee.
It can end up being extremely expensive considering a realtor cannot guarantee the house will sell quickly.
