For some people inheriting a property is an opportunity for financial gain, for others it could bring additional problems. It all depends on what shape the property is in, and if there are other heirs involved.
If the property is in a bad shape, you would be responsible to fix the property. It could cost you a fortune, all depending on what would need to be fixed. Would you be financially ready to do such updates?
When other heirs are involved, it could cause a fight because one person might want to keep the property, when the other wants to sell it. It is not an easy process to deal with, but it is doable. You just have to be at peace and have patience throughout the process.
When you inherit a property, you would also be responsible for making mortgage payments as well as insurance and taxes. This could be an additional monthly expense; would you be able to keep up with the payments?
