Inheritance & co-heirs
Your inherited property
An inheritance often comes with grief and many questions. We take care of the property side: with a neutral market value as a fair basis and an orderly, discreet process, including within a community of heirs.
Create clarity instead of risking conflict
An inherited property quickly raises questions: What is it worth? Sell, take it over or let it? And how do you divide it fairly within a community of heirs? We provide the starting point that gives everyone certainty: aneutrally determined market value. That way everyone involved starts from the same reliable figures.
Your options
Three routes we accompany
Sale and division
The inherited property is sold and the proceeds are divided among the heirs, often the simplest way to dissolve a community of heirs.
Takeover by one heir
One heir takes over the property and pays out the others. The basis is a neutrally determined market value.
Letting and keeping it
If the property is to stay in the family, we support you with letting and ongoing management.
How we proceed
Four steps to a solution
- 01
Taking stock
Together with you we get an overview of the property, the documents and the situation of the heirs.
- 02
Determine the market value
A neutral assessment of the market value creates a fair basis, for the division and for the tax office.
- 03
Agree on a solution
Sale, takeover or letting, we set out the routes and mediate between those involved.
- 04
Accompany the sale
On request we handle preparation, marketing and the process through to the notary appointment.
Important note

Frequently asked questions
Good to know
How do you dissolve a community of heirs that owns a property?
Usually through a sale with division of the proceeds, or through one heir taking over and paying out the others. What matters is a neutrally determined market value so that the division is verifiable and fair for everyone.
Why do I need the market value of an inherited property?
The market value is the basis for a fair division among the heirs and also plays a role in inheritance tax. An independent assessment prevents conflict.
What if the heirs cannot agree?
As a neutral partner with reliable figures, we help to find common ground. For legal questions or deadlocks we work alongside your notary or solicitor.
Do you advise on inheritance tax and deadlines?
No. We deal with the property, that is pricing, marketing and the sale. Questions about inheritance tax, deadlines or the certificate of inheritance are for your tax adviser, notary or solicitor.
