Losing someone is hard enough without having to figure out what to do with their house. The last thing you need right now is a project - coordinating repairs, dealing with tenants who haven't paid, or trying to list a property you might not even live near. I understand that, and I'm here to take the entire burden off your plate.

I buy inherited properties across Maryland and Northern Virginia every single month. Homes in probate, homes with multiple heirs on the deed, homes that haven't been maintained in years - none of that changes my process. I make a fair cash offer, I close on your timeline, and I handle every detail from contract to closing.

If the property is still in probate, that's fine. I work with estate attorneys throughout the DMV and I know exactly how the court process works in both Maryland and Virginia. In Maryland, the personal representative can often sell real property once appointed by the Orphans' Court. In Virginia, the executor typically has authority under the will. Either way, I can structure the contract so we're ready to close the moment the court gives the green light.

If you're an out-of-state heir, you don't need to fly in. I can walk the property myself, handle inspections and assessments on my end, and coordinate everything remotely. Closings can be done via mobile notary or mail-away packages so you never have to set foot in the state.

Family disagreements are the most common complication I see with inherited properties, and honestly, they're usually resolved faster than people expect once there's a real number on the table. When I present a cash offer, every heir can see exactly what their share would be. No guessing, no dragging it out, no months of listing and showings and open houses. Just a clean number and a closing date.

You don't need to clean the house out. You don't need to make repairs. You don't need to deal with old furniture, personal belongings, or anything else inside. I buy the property as-is, contents and all. Take what you want to keep, and leave the rest. I handle everything after closing.

A bit about me

Third generation contractor and investor.

I grew up on jobsites watching my dad's crew build from the ground up. Worked as a mortgage broker before going full-time, then started flipping my own houses. Hands-on, years in the field.

Now every deal I close runs through Nobu Holdings - fast, clean, no fees to sellers, no surprises at the table.

Inherited property questions answered

Can you buy a house that's still in probate?
Yes. I buy houses during probate regularly. I work with estate attorneys across Maryland and Virginia and can structure the deal to close as soon as the court grants authority to sell. In some cases, I can even get the contract signed during probate so we're ready to close the moment approval comes through.
What if multiple heirs disagree on selling?
This is more common than you'd think. I've handled deals with 2 heirs and deals with 12. I work with each party individually if needed, and my offers are straightforward enough that they give everyone a clear number to evaluate. A fair cash offer often resolves the disagreement faster than months of arguing about what to do with the property.
Do I need to clean out the house before selling?
No. Leave everything - furniture, personal items, junk in the basement, whatever is in there. I buy the house as-is, contents included. You don't need to clean, sort, donate, or haul anything. Take what you want to keep and I handle all the rest after closing.
Can you buy a house with a reverse mortgage?
Yes. When the borrower passes away, the reverse mortgage becomes due. I work directly with the lender to negotiate the payoff and can close before the lender begins foreclosure proceedings. This protects the estate and ensures the heirs walk away clean without owing anything.
