We bought this inherited Kenner property As Is

The seller reached out from Kenner after losing her husband. They owned the house together, but only her half was formally in her name. The other half needed to pass through succession before a sale could happen. Situations like this are common on the East Bank, especially in older parts of Kenner where families have held property for decades and paperwork doesn’t always get updated after a death.

The house itself was a full rehab. It had already been gutted down to the studs, and the seller had no desire to continue a project her husband had started. Taking on contractors, bids, supplies, and repair delays didn’t make sense for her. She needed a clean handoff and a fast, local cash buyer who could take it as is.

This is exactly the type of inherited property challenge we help with. When there’s no completed succession, we open one through our title attorney so it happens at the same time as the normal title work. Once the paperwork clears, we close immediately, and the succession costs can be paid out of the sale proceeds. Sellers don’t need to come out of pocket, which is a relief when life is already overwhelming.

Arione met the family at the house on Colorado Avenue and walked them through the process. They were ready to move forward, get closure, and let someone else take on the renovation. Below is the video from the closing day.
