What people ask us about inherited land
Can executors sell land before probate is granted?
They can agree a sale and start the legal work, but most solicitors won't exchange contracts until the grant is issued, and completion needs it.
Do all beneficiaries have to agree?
Executors make the decision, but they must act in the beneficiaries' interests. Many involve beneficiaries to avoid disputes. Take legal advice if there's disagreement.
Can you deal with our solicitor directly?
Yes. Once you instruct a solicitor, we can work through them.
Can you visit land near Pwllheli?
