Top 3 Challenges Attorneys Face with Trust Clients – And How a Real Estate Expert Can Help

by Sarah Arlington

Attorneys handling trust clients often face challenges that a knowledgeable real estate agent can help solve. 

Here are the top three:

1️⃣ Managing Property Sales with Multiple Beneficiaries

  • Challenge: When multiple heirs or beneficiaries are involved, disagreements over the sale price, timeline, or distribution of proceeds can cause delays and tension.
  • How a Real Estate Agent Helps: As a neutral third party, an agent can facilitate communication, provide market-based pricing guidance, and manage expectations to keep the process moving smoothly. Success!

2️⃣ Handling Property Maintenance and Preparation for Sale

  • Challenge: Many trust-owned properties are outdated, need repairs, or have been sitting vacant, requiring significant prep work before listing.
  • How a Real Estate Agent Helps: A specialized agent can coordinate cleanouts, repairs, and staging, ensuring the home is market-ready and sells for top dollar with minimal hassle to the attorney or trustee. Success!

3️⃣ Navigating Market Conditions and Finding the Right Buyers

  • Challenge: Trustees and attorneys may not be familiar with current real estate trends or the best strategy for maximizing the property’s value.
  • How a Real Estate Agent Helps: A real estate professional brings market expertise, pricing strategies, and targeted marketing to attract qualified buyers and achieve the best possible outcome. Success!

By partnering with a skilled real estate agent, attorneys can streamline the trust property sales process, reduce stress for clients, and focus on their legal responsibilities. 💼🏡

Success is just around the corner.
