FAQ
Boise probate sale questions.
- Can you buy a Boise home while it's still in probate?
- Often yes, once the executor or administrator has authority, an offer can be accepted and held pending any court confirmation step Idaho requires.
- Does Idaho require court confirmation?
- It depends on the form of probate. Independent administration usually doesn't; formal supervised probate sometimes does. The local probate attorney will know.
- Who pays the probate attorney?
- Estate fees come out of estate assets, typically at closing. The buyer doesn't pay them but doesn't get hit with surprises either.
- How long does Idaho probate typically take?
- Simple estates resolve in 4-9 months; contested or large estates can take 12+ months. Selling early often makes sense once authority is granted.

- As-is sale
- Selling your Boise home in its current condition. No inspection-driven repairs, no pre-list cleanup, no lender appraisal conditions.
- Net proceeds
- What hits your bank account after the loan payoff, Idaho transfer taxes, and any liens, not the headline offer price. Always compare offers on net, not gross.
- Title company / closing attorney
- Neutral third party that holds funds in escrow, clears title, and records the deed. Whether you use a title company or an attorney depends on Idaho custom.
