Been there done that. Get a good estate lawyer. You cannot do it yourself.

Great advice, Snowy. My step-father (SF) wasn’t even cold when a developer contacted me and made an offer over the phone for 25% more than the appraised value. Heirs are saying I should have sold already and SF isn’t even in the ground yet! I’m suspicious of the ridiculous offer and look forward to receiving it in writing and reading all of the hidden conditions. Right now, I’m trying to figure out if I need a real estate lawyer, an estate lawyer or both.
