Sell your inherited house nationwide
Inheriting a house anywhere in the U.S. often comes with a property you didn't choose, in a place you may not live, along with taxes, insurance and upkeep. If you have a nationwide inherited house you don't plan to keep, you can sell it as it is. Prominent Cash Offer buys nationwide inherited houses with no clean-out, no repairs and no listing.
To sell your nationwide inherited house, the person with legal authority signs: the personal representative in probate, the trustee of a trust, or the heirs together. Tax basis usually steps up to the value at the date of death; see the IRS answers on gifts and inheritances and IRS Publication 551, Basis of Assets, and ask a tax professional about your case.
Start with the address. If your nationwide inherited house is a fit, you get a written cash offer with the amount and the terms spelled out, and no obligation to accept it. There are no fees or commissions, we pay the closing costs, and you choose the closing date.
Prominent Cash Offer buys nationwide inherited houses directly, with no listing. Read the full guide to selling an inherited house, see how we buy houses nationwide. We buy inherited houses nationwide too.

| What changes | Prominent Cash Offer | Listing with an agent |
|---|---|---|
| Commissions | None | Agent commissions, usually a percentage of the sale price |
| Fees and closing costs | None. We pay the closing costs | Your share of closing costs, plus any fees in the listing agreement |
| Repairs | None. We buy as-is | Often expected before listing, or after the buyer's inspection |
| Cleaning and clearing out | Leave what you don't want | Cleaned, cleared, and staged for showings |
| Showings | None | Showings and open houses on buyers' schedules |
| Financing | Cash, with no loan to fall through | Most buyers need a mortgage, and approvals can fall through |
| Closing date | You choose it | Negotiated with the buyer and their lender |
| Time to sell | Fast, on your schedule | Time on the market, then the buyer's closing process |
A listing can bring a higher price, especially for a house in top condition. Selling to Prominent trades some of that for speed, certainty, and no repairs, fees, or commissions. Compare what actually reaches you. Compare in detail
