Easy Move Homes — Coventry Inherited Property Specialists

Easy Move Homes is based in nearby Birmingham and specialises in buying inherited property across Coventry. We've worked with families and executors handling estates throughout the city — from Victorian terraces in Foleshill and older industrial workers' housing in Hillfields, to post-war semis in Tile Hill and Canley, to period family homes in Earlsdon and Allesley, and modern apartments in the city centre. Coventry's mix of student-let properties (driven by the University of Warwick and Coventry University), industrial-era housing, and post-war family suburbs means every estate is different — and we adapt to that.

Our process is built around the practicalities of probate. Probate applications for Coventry are handled by the Birmingham District Probate Registry, typically taking 8–16 weeks from application to grant. We can begin the sale process before the grant is issued — agreeing terms with the executor, conducting our valuation, and lining up legal checks — so that as soon as probate is granted, we're ready to complete within 7–21 days. We work directly with your chosen probate solicitor, or can recommend one familiar with the Coventry market.

We make a fair, written cash offer based on the current market value of the property, its condition, and the type of probate process involved. There are no fees, no chain risk, no last-minute deductions. We cover all standard legal costs up to £1,500. As members of the National Association of Property Buyers (NAPB), The Property Ombudsman, the NRLA, and ICO-registered for data protection — we operate to the highest standards in the industry. A named owner stands behind every Coventry transaction.

Common Situations When Selling Inherited Property in Coventry

Every estate is different — but these are the most frequent situations Coventry families and executors bring to us.

Estate Divided Between Multiple Beneficiaries


When a Coventry property is left to several siblings, cousins, or co-beneficiaries — common with family homes that have stayed in one family for generations across Foleshill, Earlsdon, and Tile Hill — agreeing on an open-market sale can be slow and contentious. A cash sale gives everyone a fixed, known timeline and a clear figure to divide after legal fees. We work neutrally through your solicitor — no individual beneficiary feels pressured to accept or reject an offer.

You Live Far From the Inherited Coventry Property


Many of our clients inherit a Coventry property while based elsewhere — working in London or Birmingham, retired abroad, or living in another part of the UK. They can't easily manage repairs, viewings, contracted utilities, or estate-agent meetings in Coventry. We handle everything remotely: surveys, paperwork, communication with the solicitor, completion. You don't need to travel to Coventry. Funds transfer directly to your solicitor.

The Property Needs Clearance or Repair


Inherited Coventry homes often need significant work — clearing personal belongings from long-occupied family homes, repairs neglected during a long illness, dated decor in older Victorian terraces around Foleshill and Hillfields, or modernisation needs in 1950s–70s ex-council semis in Tile Hill and Canley. We buy properties exactly as they are. You don't need to clear the home, organise a Coventry house clearance, or pay for any work.

Inheritance Tax Deadlines Are Approaching


Inheritance Tax (IHT) is due within six months of the date of death — earlier than many families expect. If a Coventry estate doesn't have enough liquid assets to pay it, selling the inherited property fast is often the only practical option. We work to timelines aligned with HMRC deadlines so the estate isn't charged interest for late payment.

The Probate Process — What You Need to Know

Selling an inherited property follows a different process than selling your own home. Here's how each stage works, and where we fit in.

Death Certificate & Will Reading (Days 1–30):

After registering the death, the executor named in the will (or appointed by the court if no will exists) collects the death certificate and confirms the contents of the will. The estate's assets — including any property — are identified and valued. Property valuation can begin at this stage. We can already start discussions with the executor.

Application for Grant of Probate (Months 1–3):

The executor submits an application to the Probate Registry along with an estate valuation. This grants legal authority to deal with the estate's property and finances. We can agree terms with the executor during this period — conducting our valuation, beginning legal checks, and preparing the paperwork for completion.

Grant of Probate Issued (Months 3–6):

Once probate is granted, the executor can legally transfer or sell the property. This is when completion of a sale can actually happen. With Easy Move Homes, completion typically takes 7–21 days from the grant of probate, since all our preparation is already done.

Distribution of Estate (Months 6–12+):

After the sale completes, funds are held by the solicitor while Inheritance Tax (if applicable) is paid and outstanding debts are settled. The remainder is distributed to beneficiaries according to the terms of the will.

How We Calculate Your Cash Offer

Every offer is based on hard data - not guesswork. Here's exactly how we arrive at a fair number.

Current Market Value


Current Market Value

We start with the open-market value of your property based on recent sales of similar homes in your postcode - pulled directly from the Land Registry and the actual Rightmove data.

Property Condition


We factor in any visible work needed - cosmetic, refurbishment, structural repairs, modernisation. You don't need to fix anything before the sale. We buy it as it-is

Completion Speed


The faster you need to complete, the more we factor in the holding costs of bridging finance. A 7-day completion costs us more than a 30-day one.

Market Conditions


Local demand, recent comparable sales, and the time of year all play a role. We work transparently - you see every assumption in writing.
