If you’ve become an executor or beneficiary for a block of units in Victoria, the sales process brings extra steps and challenges. Simon Abbott breaks down the probate process, required documents (grant, will, death certificate), estate agent role, dealing with multiple beneficiaries, and managing tenants during transition. Includes key negotiation lessons: defusing family disagreement, deciding whether to sell as one block or individually, and handling maintenance or compliance issues the estate ignored. Real-world scenarios: probate delays, competing expectations, and best ways to get the property ‘sale ready’ without causing friction.
