Don’t Hold Up Mountain View Probate Sale: Get Your Letters Certified


And by certified I don’t mean on Sesame Street.

There is nothing worse than getting to the closing of your Mountain View probate sale and finding out, oops you can’t close.  Or even worse, you are an out of town Personal Representative on this Silicon Valley Probate Sale and you are told there is a hold up. You need a CERTIFIED COPY OF YOUR LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION in order to close the sale. Where are they? Did you leave them out the house? Did you leave them with your attorney?

Make sure that you have these letters in the certified form in your possession so that you can get them to the title company so that you can close this escrow.

There are many things to remember when you have the responsibility of an estate, whether it is a large or small one. There is a lot of paper work. You probably are dealing with mounds of paperwork from your deceased loved one as well as from the court.

Just treat the Letters of Administration like gold, since this is what proves you have the right to sell a home that does not belong to you. If you can not find anything else, find these and you can deal with the other papers later.
