Selling an Inherited Property in Everett WA — When You’re Not the Only Heir
Inheriting a house with siblings sounds like a blessing — until it becomes a source of tension. If you’re trying to sell a house in Everett that was passed down to multiple heirs, the process can quickly become overwhelming.
At REI Branded Home Buyer, we’ve helped families in this exact situation. We know how to work with multiple heirs, sort out disagreements, and buy inherited homes fast.
Who Actually Owns the Home?
Washington law generally requires probate unless the property was held in a trust or joint tenancy with right of survivorship. If there’s a will, the personal representative must be identified. If not, the estate is distributed under Washington’s intestate succession laws.
If you and your siblings are named as equal beneficiaries, you’ll each have legal rights — and a say in what happens to the home.
Common Problems When Selling With Siblings
Some common challenges we’ve seen:
- One sibling wants to sell — another doesn’t
- Disagreements over the price or offers
- One heir lives out of state
- Emotional attachment from childhood memories
- Ongoing mortgage or property taxes
These issues can cause delays or even legal battles. That’s why it’s helpful to bring in a neutral third party like us — a cash buyer who can buy the home quickly, giving everyone their share.
Do You Need to Go Through Probate?
If the property hasn’t gone through probate, the sale can’t legally close until it does — unless there’s an exemption or transfer-on-death deed. We’re familiar with the Washington State process and can guide you through it.

About REI Branded Home Buyer
Real People. Real Stories. Real Solutions. We’re George and TJ — two regular guys who teamed up to create REI Branded Home Buyer, a local company with one simple mission: to help people sell their homes without stress, games, or pressure. We actually met at a local real estate meetup. A mutual friend randomly shouted, “Hey George, do you want to be this guy’s mentor?” George laughed and said, “Just give him my cell!” A coffee meeting later, and the rest is history. We've been working together ever since. Our passion for helping homeowners comes from personal experience. George was once homeless, so he deeply understands what it’s like to face housing uncertainty. TJ’s family went through a crisis and had to sell their home fast — with the help of a cash homebuyer. Those experiences shaped who we are and inspired us to create a company that treats people the way we wish we’d been treated. Let’s be real: the real estate world is full of shady companies, pushy salespeople, and sleazy homebuyers who care more about profit than people. We started REI Branded Home Buyer because we believe it should be the other way around — people first, profit second. We’re proud to call Spokane home. Our wives, Jenny and Michelle, love the slower pace of life here and all the outdoor beauty Washington has to offer. George and Jenny have two amazing daughters and two dogs — they love to travel and recently visited Japan to see their daughter abroad. TJ and Michelle are outdoor lovers through and through — backpacking, hiking, hunting, fishing, even rock climbing. Michelle’s become quite the mountaineer! If you’re thinking about selling a house — no matter the reason — we’d love to hear your story and see how we can help.
