Can I sell an inherited home before probate is finished?

An inherited home can go under contract before probate fully closes as long as the court has appointed a personal representative authorized to sign on the estate's behalf. The closing itself is scheduled around when that authority and clear title are documented, not around the last administrative step of probate. Brian Beatty regularly lists during this window so heirs are not waiting months longer than necessary.
