#489 | Probate Problems: Costly Court Appointments When Family Fights Over Property

This nightmare becomes reality when families can't agree during probate.

😡𝗜𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲…𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗹.

Here's what actually happens: Courts step in and appoint a "Special Commissioner" to handle the sale. Legal fees start mounting. And most families have no idea what this person can legally charge them.

In today's episode, we break down:

✅ When a court can force the sale of property ✅ What a special commissioner is (and isn't) allowed to collect ✅ How to spot when fees are legitimate… and when something doesn't add up ✅ Why probate becomes expensive — fast — when families disagree

The hard truth? Property disputes can spiral into court intervention quicker than you think. One family disagreement can cost you control of your most valuable asset.

Don't let this happen to your family. Listen up so you know exactly what you're up against without proper planning.
