Can I sell an inherited house before probate is finished in Johns Island?
Selling an inherited house on Johns Island before probate is fully finished depends on whether the personal representative already has legal authority to sign a contract, which a will or a court order can sometimes grant before probate formally closes. Without that authority, a sale generally has to wait. Brian Beatty confirms the estate's status with its attorney before listing a Johns Island inherited property.
