Losing a loved one is hard enough. Having to sort out their estate, deal with legal red tape, and figure out what to do with their house? It can feel overwhelming.

If you’re dealing with a property that’s in probate in Washington, the good news is — you can still sell it, and we can help make that happen.

At REI Branded Home Buyer, we specialize in buying inherited homes in probate all across the state. No agents, no cleanouts, and no waiting for the court process to fully wrap up.


What Is Probate?

Probate is the legal process Washington uses to transfer a deceased person’s property to their heirs. It can take months, even longer, depending on:

  • Whether there’s a valid will
  • How many heirs are involved
  • If there are debts, liens, or disputes
  • The county’s court backlog

The home usually can’t be sold until the personal representative (executor) is appointed and the court allows it. But once that’s in place, we can move fast.


Real Story From Walla Walla

A seller in Walla Walla inherited her mother’s house but lived out of state. It needed cleaning, updating, and legal approval through probate.

She didn’t want to fly back and forth. We coordinated with her attorney, bought the house as-is, and closed before the court case was even finalized.

  • We work with your estate attorney or title company

Can I Sell Before Probate is Finished?

Yes — in many cases.

We’ll walk you through it and even help pay off any liens or taxes as part of the sale.

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.
