What Happens to Rental Property During Probate? – Episode #435
I am often asked what happens to rental property during probate. Specifically, what happens to the rental income during the probate process? In today's show, I'm going to answer these questions as well as some other common questions that pertain to rental properties that are part of an estate, such as, “What happens when the tenant stops paying rent but won't move out”?
Learn the ins and outs of how to handle common tenant problems during the probate process.
[00:00 – 06:54] What to Do When Rental Income Can't Cover Expenses During Probate
- The probate process involves a decision-maker (executor/administrator)
- Understanding how probate works helps treat money in estate properly
- Once the estate is opened and the executor/administrator is appointed, they can move forward with selling assets in the estate

[06:55 – 15:13] What to Do if Property Becomes Vacant During Process
- Heirs cannot have access to rental income before probate is completed
