Sell an inherited house in Birmingham

You can sell an inherited Birmingham house for cash, as-is, with nothing cleaned out and nothing repaired. Acquily shows a real offer range online in about 60 seconds, and you choose the closing date. Before closing, the deed has to be in the name of whoever is selling, which usually means probate is finished or being finished.

A parent or grandparent passes away and the house sits. The bills keep coming, the yard keeps growing, and someone in the family ends up carrying it alone.

Often the house is full of a lifetime of belongings, and nobody wants to be the one to sort through them. Meanwhile the insurance may lapse because the policy was in the person's name.

The other common piece is the deed. If it is still in the name of the person who died, a court process has to clear title first. That is normal in Alabama and it is fixable.

You get the range first

Enter the address and describe the condition honestly. The range comes back in about 60 seconds, before anyone calls you.

We look at the title picture

We ask whose name is on the deed. If probate is not finished, we tell you that up front and connect you with an Alabama attorney who does this work.

You leave what you want to leave

Take the things that matter. Furniture, clothes, papers, and everything else can stay. We handle it after closing.

You choose the closing date

Soon, or months out if the family needs time. We do not push the date.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to clean out the house first?

No. Take what you want and leave the rest. We handle the clean out after closing.

What if the deed is still in my parent's name?

Then title must be cleared before a sale can close, usually through probate. We connect you with an Alabama attorney who handles it and we plan the timeline around it.

What if my siblings and I all inherited it?

Everyone who owns a share has to agree to sell and sign. Read our page on heirs' property for how that works.

Will I owe taxes on the sale?

That depends on your situation and the value of the house when it was inherited. We are not tax advisors, so ask a CPA before you sign.

What does it cost to sell to Acquily?

Nothing. No commissions, no listing fees, no repairs, and no closing costs paid by you.
