PROBATE PROPERTY IN CHEEKTOWAGA — FAQ
How does NCB buy a probate house in Cheektowaga before probate is complete?
NCB executes a purchase agreement with the executor or administrator, contingent on the Surrogate’s Court granting authority to sell. Once the court issues the sale decree — as part of Letters Testamentary or a separate petition — we proceed to closing within 7–14 days. The estate receives cash at closing. We work with your estate attorney throughout and are fully familiar with the Erie County Surrogate’s Court process at 92 Franklin Street.
What documents does the executor need to sell a Cheektowaga probate property?
The primary document is Letters Testamentary (if there’s a will) or Letters of Administration (if no will) — issued by Erie County Surrogate’s Court. The executor may also need a court order authorizing the specific sale of real property. NCB’s title company handles all required title searches and closing documents. Your estate attorney prepares and files the court documents. We coordinate with both.
Does the Cheektowaga probate house need repairs before NCB will make an offer?
No. NCB buys probate properties completely as-is — deferred maintenance, dated interiors, structural issues, full of belongings. We’ve purchased Cheektowaga probate properties in every condition imaginable. You are never asked to repair, update, or clean out the property. Leave everything — we handle it after closing.
How long does probate take for a Cheektowaga property at Erie County Surrogate’s Court?
An uncontested Erie County probate typically takes 12–18 months from filing to final distribution. However, NCB can close on the real property much earlier — as soon as the court issues authority to sell, which often happens well before the full estate is settled. Getting NCB’s cash offer early stops carrying costs and gives the estate liquid funds while other estate matters are resolved. See our Erie County probate timeline.
What if the Cheektowaga probate property has back taxes or liens?
Outstanding Erie County property taxes, mechanic’s liens, and other encumbrances are resolved at closing from NCB’s purchase proceeds. The estate receives the net after all liens are paid — no out-of-pocket costs. This is standard in our process. See: Probate + Back Taxes guide.
Can NCB buy a Cheektowaga probate house when there is no will?
Yes. When there is no will, New York’s intestate succession laws determine who inherits — and an administrator (rather than executor) is appointed by the Surrogate’s Court. The process is essentially the same from NCB’s perspective. We work with administrators as readily as with executors. See: No Will — Intestate Estate NY.
