Answers to common questions about our estate coordination, property sales, and compliance services.
We work with fiduciaries, trustees, and court-appointed representatives managing property in estate, probate, or trust administration.
Appointed is a licensed California brokerage that provides complete coordination and compliance management for estate property sales.
We don’t list homes ourselves — instead, we coordinate the referral of either your preferred agent or a topperforming local agent, and manage all supporting vendors involved in the sale. From preparation to closing, every step is organized, documented, and compliant with fiduciary and court standards.
No. This is a compliance-managed estate sale, not a traditional listing.
Appointed oversees the entire process — coordinating the listing agent referral, managing vendors, and documenting every step to meet court and fiduciary standards.
No. Our coordination and compliance management services are included within the same real estate commission the estate would pay in a standard sale — there are no additional fees.
Appointed secures and engages the listing agent on behalf of the estate. We handle the contracting process and ensure the listing agreement is properly executed and compliant.
If you have a preferred agent, we’ll coordinate with them directly; otherwise, we engage a top-performing local agent experienced in estate and probate sales.
Approved vendors are paid for completed work. Appointed and the listing agent are paid only when the property is sold.
All approved services performed by vendors within Appointed’s approved network are paid through escrow at closing.
We combine real-estate expertise with compliance oversight.
Every document, vendor action, and payment is tracked in the Appointed Compliance Ledger, creating a transparent, court-ready record — all for the same cost as a standard sale.
From contract to close, Appointed coordinates every step with full transparency, accountability, and documented oversight — all included within the same real estate commission you’d already pay to sell.
