What Happens To Your Home If It Goes To Probate?

For most families...Their home represents far more than four walls and a roof.  It's where children were raised. Where birthdays were celebrated. Where holidays were spent. It's often the largest financial asset a family owns. But today I want to ask a question that very few homeowners have ever considered.  What happens to your home if it goes to probate? Who takes care of it? Who pays the mortgage? Can someone sell it? How long does the process take? And perhaps the biggest question of all... Could probate have been avoided?  Today we're going to walk through what actually happens to a home after its owner passes away.
