Common questions
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.
What if the land is unregistered?
It can still be sold. The title will be registered as part of the sale, which adds some time.
Will you pressure us to decide quickly?
No. Take the time you need and take independent advice.
