How we helped four siblings resolve an inherited property dispute and close a deal that worked for everyone.
After their father's passing, four siblings inherited a dated 3-bedroom home in Cary. One wanted to keep it, two wanted to sell, and one lived out of state and just wanted out. The estate attorney recommended they reach out to us for help.
With four heirs and four different opinions, the property was at a standstill. The sibling who wanted to keep it couldn't afford to buy out the others at market price. A partition sale would be costly and time-consuming.
Working with their attorney, we structured a solution: We made an offer that gave the sibling who wanted to stay an opportunity to purchase the property themselves through a delayed closing, using our financing. This allowed them to secure the home while providing immediate liquidity to the other three siblings.
The property closed in 6 weeks. Three siblings received their inheritance quickly. The fourth sibling secured their childhood home. The attorney had a satisfied client. Everyone won.
