Probate is the legal process of settling an estate after someone passes away. If you've inherited a Florida property, here's what to expect.
How Long Does Probate Take in Florida?
In Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties, probate can take 6 to 18 months. A cash sale can help heirs move forward faster in many cases.
Can You Sell During Probate?
Yes — often a sale can begin during probate with court approval. See our inherited homes & probate page for details.
