A guide to probate

When selling a property left behind by a relative, probate is often involved.
But what is probate?

It’s the formal permission needed to deal with someone’s estate (their property, money, and possessions) after they have passed away.

If you are named in the deceased person’s will as an executor, you can apply for probate. But even if they didn’t leave a will, depending on your relationship to them, you can apply to become the administrator of the estate.

In most cases, you will need legal permission to sell their property, hence the need to apply for probate. Before applying for probate, it’s advisable to prepare if a property is part of their estate.

Depending on the size of the estate, applying for probate can take between 4 and 52 weeks. However, you can market a property for sale during this time as you await the granting of probate.
