Prep the house now. Pay for it at closing, not out of pocket.
Most inherited homes in Los Angeles County have decades of deferred maintenance, but standard estates are often cash-poor. You shouldn't have to front thousands of your own dollars for cleanouts, landscaping, or minor repairs just to get the home ready for market.
Through the Concierge Pay-at-Close Network, I bring in a vetted team of local LA County contractors and cleanout specialists to handle the heavy lifting. Every service is billed directly through escrow and paid at closing — you and your siblings never write an upfront check.
Sorting a lifetime of memories is a marathon. Let me take the physical burden.
Walking into a parent's home filled with belongings can trigger real grief. You have nothing to be embarrassed about — I see cluttered or outdated homes every day, and it's incredibly common.
I protect your family's legacy and reduce friction with a structured sorting method I walk every family through personally, so keepsakes are protected first and nothing is thrown away by mistake.
Don't leave your family's equity on the table.
It's tempting to take a fast offer from a "we buy houses" cash investor just to make the problem go away. But in mid-tier LA County neighborhoods, that fast offer usually means leaving real equity on the table, money that rightfully belongs to the heirs.
There's a better way, one that doesn't require a costly remodel or months of work. I use a proven strategy that gives the home full open-market exposure, so buyers compete for it instead of one lowball offer setting the price. Every estate is different, so the right plan starts with a conversation.
LA County probate courts are busier than ever. Let's keep your transaction on the Fast Track.
I work in seamless alignment with your probate attorney to help protect you from personal liability, steering your transaction through the Independent Administration of Estates Act (IAEA) "Fast Track" whenever possible — list and sell normally, issue a Notice of Proposed Action, clear a short objection window, and close without a courtroom appearance.
Where the "Slow Track" (limited authority or a sibling objection) applies, I handle the courtroom overbidding process and confirmation hearing with full compliance, minimizing friction at every step.
Absolute sibling neutrality. No sidebars. Total transparency.
Being the executor often means being caught in the middle of family friction. I stay completely neutral, and everyone hears the same thing at the same time. Every decision is grounded in real market numbers, not emotions, and not whoever speaks the loudest.
Whether your family lives down the street or across the country, I bridge the distance and keep everyone included. I handle the hard conversations and the heavy lifting, so your family relationships stay intact and you can focus on what truly matters.

A listing specialist who chose to focus entirely on probate.
I'm Aurora Trevino, a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist serving all of Los Angeles County. I help local and out-of-state heirs protect the estate's value, coordinate the logistics, and navigate the home sale with absolute transparency, so you can focus on what matters most.
Aurora Trevino has been a California-licensed real estate professional since 2002 and a broker since 2007. Today, as a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist with 4H Tres Comas Realty (DRE #01338241), she works with executors, administrators, and heirs across all 88 cities of Los Angeles County — from the San Fernando Valley to the Gateway Cities.
Her clients are rarely investors or seasoned sellers; more often, they're the person their family called "the responsible one," someone already managing a full-time job and a family of their own who now also has to sell inherited property they never expected to be handling. At her core, Aurora is a listing specialist — someone whose focus is getting a home priced right, positioned right, and marketed to the buyers most likely to pay full value — and that same discipline is what she brings to every probate sale.
