I sold a house last year that had been in the same family since 1961.
The legal side was settled before we listed, and that mattered more than anyone expected it to, because an estate still working its way through probate can stall a closing at exactly the moment you cannot afford a delay.
Clearing the house took the family most of a month, so we built that into the schedule instead of pretending it would take a weekend.
Once it was ready it sold in eleven days.
There is a chapter on this in my free book, and I will happily send you a copy.
