Can you sell uninhabitable house as-is in Texas

First Step — Determine Heirship Through Probate Court

In Texas, when there’s no will:

  1. A probate case is opened

  2. The court determined the heirs

  3. An administrator is appointed to handle the estate

This process ensures you’re legally able to sell the house — even if your name isn’t on the deed.  As a result, you can avoid going through probate.

Fortunately, Texas allows you to skip full probate in some situations. If the estate meets specific conditions, heirs can file an Affidavit of Heirship instead of going to court.

Need help navigating probate? Here’s how it works without a will ➔

What If There Are Multiple Heirs?

Without a will, the court must determine who legally inherits the home. This process can drag on for months—or longer— especially if heirs disagree.

  • You’ll all need to agree to sell — or

  • One heir may buy out the others — or

  • You can sell and split proceeds at closing

We can work with all parties involved to keep it simple and drama-free.
