Settling an estate and need to sell the house? We buy probate properties across Massachusetts for cash, as-is, and work with the estate's attorney and the court's timeline.


Families turn to Boston Investors when a probate property needs to sell and a traditional listing does not fit: the house is dated or full of belongings, the heirs live out of state, or the estate simply needs to be settled. We make one fair cash offer, skip the contingencies, and let you pick the closing date.
Whether you are an executor settling an estate or an heir who inherited a share of the home, we have handled it before. Our offer comes with no obligation and no fees on your side.
We buy probate homes in any condition, with the belongings still inside, and we coordinate with the attorney handling the estate. We close with a local Massachusetts attorney.
Appointed by the court to settle the estate. We handle the sale so you can focus on the family.
Selling the family home so the estate can be divided fairly among everyone involved.
Handling a parent's Massachusetts home from another state. We can close remotely.
No inspections that kill deals, no repair credits, no staging. Whatever shape your property is in, we make a fair cash offer and close on your schedule.
No open houses, no waiting for financing, no surprises at the closing table. Just three straightforward steps from first contact to cash in hand.
Fill out the short form or call us at (617) 539-6162. Share basic details about the property: the address, the condition, and where things stand with probate. Takes less than two minutes.
We review the details, research recent local comps, and deliver a fair, written cash offer within 24 hours. No obligation to accept, just a clear number the estate can evaluate on its own terms.
Accept the offer and choose your closing date. Two to four weeks from a signed agreement is the normal case, and we confirm the date once the closing attorney has checked title. We handle the paperwork, cover closing costs, and wire your payment at closing.

Most sellers are surprised by how little they need to do. We designed our process to put the work on our side, not yours.
Leave the furniture, the junk in the basement, the items in the attic. Take what matters to you and walk away. Our team handles full cleanout at our cost, zero charge to you.
Deferred maintenance, cosmetic damage, major system failures: we factor repair costs into our offer and handle everything post-closing. You'll never need to call a contractor.
We cover the standard closing costs and charge no commissions or fees, so you write no checks to sell. What still comes out of the proceeds is anything secured against the property: your mortgage payoff, property taxes and municipal charges, and any water and sewer balance.
Probate is the court process that settles an estate and gives the executor or administrator the legal authority to transfer property. Until that authority is granted, the house usually cannot be sold, which is where many families get stuck.
The good news is that you often do not have to wait for probate to fully close to get moving. Once the court allows the sale, we can buy the home as-is, with the belongings still inside, and we coordinate the details with the attorney handling the estate. There is nothing for you to clear out or repair.
There are no agent commissions, no repairs, and no cleanout on your end. We make a fair cash offer on the property as it stands and close through a licensed Massachusetts attorney on a timeline that fits the estate, whether that is a fast close or a date further out.
Every estate is different, and the timeline depends on the court and the specifics of the will. Boston Investors is a home buyer, not a law firm, and nothing here is legal advice, so we always recommend confirming the details with the estate's attorney. We are glad to work alongside them.

Questions families ask when selling a home in probate. Don't see yours? Call or text us directly.
Often yes. Once the court grants the executor or administrator authority to act, the property can usually be sold even if the estate is not fully closed. We can look at your specific timeline.
No. We buy probate homes as-is, with the belongings inside if that is easier. Take what matters to you and leave the rest for us to handle after closing.
We are glad to work with all heirs and the attorney handling the estate, so everyone is on the same page before closing.
There can be, depending on the estate and any gain since the date of death. We are not tax advisors, so please confirm the specifics with the estate's attorney or a CPA.
Because our offers are cash, closings often happen within a few weeks once the court allows, on a date that fits the estate.
A cash sale is not automatically the right answer, and we would rather tell you that now than at the closing table
Not sure which one you are? That is normal, and it is the conversation rather than the website that sorts it out. Tell us the address and roughly what the house needs, and we will tell you which route we think fits and why, including when the answer is that you should be talking to an agent rather than to us.
Get a fair, no-obligation cash offer in 24 hours. Close on your schedule, leave anything behind, and pay zero fees or commissions.
