When Maria and her sister inherited their late mother’s home, both wanted to honor her legacy — but they had different plans for the property. Maria preferred to sell her share and move forward financially, while her sister wanted to keep the home but couldn’t afford to purchase Maria’s portion outright or qualify for a traditional loan.
Feeling stuck, the sisters feared their family inheritance might turn into a legal conflict. That’s when Maria reached out to the Law Office of Theresa Nguyen, PLLC for help.
When multiple heirs inherit property, disagreements over how to handle ownership are common. In Maria’s case, the co-owned property created financial and emotional tension. Selling the home wasn’t an option her sister wanted, but without financing, she had no means to buy out Maria’s share.
Maria wanted a fair and secure way to sell her interest, without forcing her sister into hardship or initiating costly partition litigation.
Our attorneys reviewed the estate documents, title records, and ownership details, then crafted a custom legal and financial solution that benefited both siblings.
We structured a financed buyout that allowed Maria’s sister to purchase her share through a private loan — ensuring Maria received fair compensation while maintaining legal protections.
Our team:
Facilitated open communication between both parties to keep the process amicable
Drafted a comprehensive Purchase and Sale Agreement to formalize the transaction
Prepared the Deed, Deed of Trust, and Promissory Note to secure the loan and protect repayment rights
Ensured all documentation complied with state real estate and lending laws
Coordinated notarization and recording to finalize ownership transfer smoothly and legally
This solution gave Maria a fair sale, allowed her sister to keep the family home, and prevented any future title or probate complications.
Through careful planning and negotiation, our firm successfully executed the financed sibling buyout — without court intervention or family conflict. Maria received a secured payment structure, her sister gained full ownership of the property, and both parties left satisfied.
“I was worried we’d end up fighting or having to sell the house. Theresa’s team handled everything so fairly and professionally. They made sure my rights were protected, and my sister could keep our mom’s home. It was the perfect solution.”
