Easy Move Homes — Solihull Inherited Property Specialists

Easy Move Homes is based in nearby Birmingham and specialises in buying inherited property across Solihull. We've worked with families and executors handling estates throughout the borough — from large detached homes in Knowle, Dorridge, and Hampton-in-Arden, to period semis in Olton, Shirley, and Balsall Common, to well-maintained family houses in Chelmsley Wood, Castle Bromwich, and Marston Green. Solihull's higher-value properties often involve more complex estates with Inheritance Tax implications, and we understand that local context fully.


Our process is built around the practicalities of probate. Probate applications for Solihull 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 Solihull's higher-value 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 Solihull transaction.

Common Situations When Selling Inherited Property in Solihull

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

Estate Divided Between Multiple Beneficiaries

When a Solihull property is left to several siblings, cousins, or co-beneficiaries — common with larger family estates from Knowle, Dorridge, or Hampton-in-Arden — agreeing on an open-market sale can be slow and contentious. With higher-value homes, beneficiary disagreements about price and timing are especially common. A cash sale gives everyone a fixed, known timeline and a clear figure to divide after legal fees. We work neutrally through your solicitor.

Distant or Difficult Location

You Live Far From the Inherited Solihull Property

Many of our clients inherit a Solihull property while based elsewhere — adult children living in London, retired beneficiaries abroad, or relatives across the UK. They can't easily manage repairs, viewings, contracted utilities, or meetings with Solihull estate agents. We handle everything remotely: surveys, paperwork, communication with the solicitor, completion. You don't need to travel to Solihull.

The Property Needs Clearance or Repair

Inherited Solihull homes often need work that families don't have time for — clearing belongings from a long-occupied family home, modernisation of dated kitchens and bathrooms in 1970s-1980s detached properties, or repairs neglected during illness. We buy properties exactly as they are. You don't need to clear the home, organise a house clearance, or pay for any work.

Inheritance Tax Deadlines Are Approaching

Inheritance Tax is more often an issue in Solihull than in other West Midlands boroughs, because property values frequently push estates above the £325,000 threshold (or £500,000 with main residence nil-rate band). IHT is due within six months of the date of death — earlier than many families expect. If the estate doesn't have enough liquid assets, selling the inherited property fast is often the only practical option. We work to timelines aligned with HMRC deadlines.

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.
