What should the executor do first when selling an inherited Folly Beach home?

An executor's first step on a Folly Beach inherited home is confirming they have letters of authority from the probate court before signing anything, since that document is what a title company and buyer's lender will require. Next comes securing the property, gathering keys and insurance, and getting a walkthrough of its condition. Brian Beatty helps executors sequence these early steps so the listing does not stall on paperwork.
