When someone dies and leaves behind real property (like a house or land), that property often needs to be sold as part of settling their estate. If the estate is in probate, special steps must be followed to sell the property legally. This summary explains, in simple terms, how to sell real property during a probate case.

When someone dies in Michigan, the probate court oversees the administration of their estate. This process ensures debts are paid and remaining assets are distributed according to the will or, if there's no will, state law. The process begins by filing a petition in probate court, after which a personal representative is appointed. This person handles inventorying assets, notifying creditors, paying taxes and debts, and distributing what's left to heirs or beneficiaries.
