Sell your share of an inherited house in Atlanta — without family sign-off.

We buy one heir’s share of an inherited house. You sell your piece, we handle the rest. No family meeting required.

Who this is for

You inherited a share with siblings or cousins you don’t talk to

Your name is on the deed next to relatives you have drifted from, fallen out with, or simply stopped talking to. Every option that requires their cooperation is a non-starter. You want a way out that doesn’t go through them.

You’re one of multiple heirs and the others won’t agree to sell

Some of the heirs want to keep the property; some want to sell; somebody won’t take a position at all. The property sits in deadlock and has for a long time. You want your share liquidated regardless of what they decide to do with theirs. The page on siblings who won’t agree walks through the family-deadlock dynamics in more depth.

You don’t want to wait years for everyone to die, move, or change their mind

The math is easy to see. In five or ten years some of the other heirs will be gone. Some will have moved. Some will have changed their minds. You also know that waiting-it-out is not a plan, just the absence of one. You want this off your plate now, not eventually.

What we don’t do

• We don’t pressure you with “this offer expires.” Take the offer home, think about it, talk to a CPA or attorney. We don’t set artificial deadlines.
• We don’t demand all heirs on board. We buy your specific share. The other heirs aren’t in the transaction.
• We don’t pretend the property is worthless to lowball you. The valuation is honest. The discount we take is for the cure work and the unilateral close, not because we claimed the house was a teardown.
• We don’t disappear after closing. Whatever happens with the property after the buyout — cure work, eventual resale, occupancy resolution — is our problem, not yours.
• We don’t send mailers to your siblings, post bandit signs in your neighborhood, or contact anyone else in the family. The transaction is between you and us. Other heirs find out when the deed records publicly — not from us showing up at their door.

What we do

• Buy your share for a clear cash number — usually less than a partition lawsuit would net you, and more than a wholesaler would pay. Without the lawsuit or the family meeting.
• Handle the title work— quiet title actions, heirship affidavits, partition risk on our side if it ever comes up. The page on title-cure work explains the mechanics.
• Pay your closing costs. No fees, no retainer, no surprise deductions at close.
• Close in 30 daysfor clear-title transactions, longer for cure-required cases (the cure delay happens on our side, after you’ve accepted the offer).

Who pays to fix the title

We do. This is the part that separates us from every other answer you have been given, so we will say it plainly.

You do not pay for any of it. No retainer. No filing fees. No attorney bills. When we buy your share, the cost of curing the title moves to our side of the table and stays there.

The usual advice is to go hire a lawyer first. A quiet title action runs into the thousands. You pay it up front, before you know what the house will bring. Most families who inherit a bad title do not have that money sitting there. That is the wall people hit.

And if the cure turns out harder than we thought, that is our loss, not yours. You were already paid.

How we price

Most pages selling something say either “we pay top dollar” or “we pay fair market value.” Both phrases are usually marketing. We don’t use either, because neither would be true.

The offer reflects a tradeoff. On one side: a partition lawsuit, where you might net somewhat more dollars after a year and a half of attorney fees, mediation, and forced-auction discounts. On the other: a wholesaler buying the whole property at the bottom of the market, which requires every heir’s signature you don’t have. We compare those two buyer types side by side in cash buyer vs. heir-specialty buyer. We sit between those. The discount we take buys you the unilateral close (no other heir signs), the title cure work (you don’t run a quiet title), the family-invisible exit (no contact with anyone else), and the 30-day timeline. That bundle is what you’re actually buying when you take our offer.

We don’t publish ranges or percentages on this page because the right number depends entirely on the property, the share, and the cure work. The honest answer comes from looking at your specific case. We tell you the number when we make the offer; you decide whether the tradeoff is worth it. If you want the cost-and-time math against the alternative path, our page on the alternative to partition action walks through what partition actually costs and how long it takes. If you’re still working out whether the property you inherited qualifies as what is heir property in the legal sense — tenants in common, tangled title, the structural definition — the orientation page covers it.

How the offer works

1. You tell us about the property.Address and a rough sense of who else is on the title. We don’t need a deed copy or tax statement to start.
2. We diligence on our side. Title pull, occupancy check, valuation. None of those steps involve contact with the other heirs.
3. We send you a written offer. Take it home. Think about it. Talk to a CPA or your attorney. If you accept, we draw up the buyout deed and close. If you decline, no penalty and no follow-up calls.

What happens after you accept

People often ask what the close actually looks like. The “30 days” line stays abstract until you can picture the steps.

First, we send you a buyout agreement and a deed for your share. Both can be reviewed by your attorney or CPA before you sign — we encourage that, and we don’t ask for any non-disclosure. The agreement names your specific share, the price, the closing date, and confirms that no other heir signs and no other heir is notified.

Second, we open a closing file with a real-estate attorney or title company who handles the deed recording in your county. If you’re local, you can sign at their office. If you’re out of state, the documents are sent to a notary near you and signed there — you don’t fly to Atlanta. We pay the closing costs on both sides.

Third, on the closing date, the deed is recorded at the county and your funds wire to the bank account you specified. From your end, the entire post-acceptance process is roughly two phone calls and a notary appointment. From our end, the title cure work begins after close — that part is on us, not you.

The other heirs find out when the deed records publicly at the county. Some check the records and notice within a month. Some never check and don’t notice for years. We don’t notify them. We don’t mail them. We don’t put up signs. Their relationship with the property continues as it was, except their co-owner is now us instead of you. From your side, the chapter is closed the day the funds clear — which usually feels like a faster ending than a process this entrenched would seem to allow.
