Our Sponsors: Finnigan McNeill Property Group

Have you ever heard the word probate and not really understood what it means?

Today’s episode gives a glimpse into the distribution of property owned by someone who has passed away.

Nick Kalms set up an auction house for selling probate properties, after spending 25 years as a property trader.
He named it Probate.Auction and he was joined for the interview by his Head of Partnerships Dan Marsden.

During the episode, we discuss:

• The meaning and legal process of probate
• Post-Covid delays in obtaining probate
• Differences between live and timed auctions, including the flexibility and increased sale rates in timed auctions post-Covid.
• The role of charity legacy teams and probate lawyers as key sources of vendor referrals, and examples of charities benefiting from auction sales.
• Buying probate properties at auction: always read the legal pack, especially the special conditions, and watch out for hidden or cleverly disguised fees.
