What is Probate and How Is The Realtors Commission Set During Probate?

Probate is a Superior Court procedure to determine a will’s validity and any creditor’s claims. Probate also establishes the identity of the beneficiaries. If the validity of a will is in question, then after a person dies, an administrator or administratrix is appointed by the court. The administrator of administratrix is appointed by the court to take possession of the property until probate is finalized. If the will has appointed a particular custodian, then that person is known as the executor or executrix. The real estate commission for a property that is in probate is set by a court order.

Experiencing the death of a loved one can be a difficult and trying time. Family squabbles and court issues serve to further create an intense span of emotions. Having a professional that you can trust and who understands your issues can make a huge difference in smoothing out this transition in your life. Be sure that you have selected a Realtor that you feel can create this type of transition for you and your family.
