Meanwhile, the property still needs attention.

We help protect the asset, coordinate necessary work, document property conditions, and handle the day-to-day logistics that can otherwise fall on attorneys, fiduciaries, or family members.

Common Marin Scenario
Illustrative scenario
The inherited property
$3.5M
A family home in Kentfield.
The propertyKentfield, CA
The executorChicago, IL
A family inherits a $3.5 million home in Kentfield. The executor lives in Chicago.
The house is vacant, landscaping continues to grow, mail is accumulating, a plumbing issue develops, and contractors need access.
The attorney and family are still months away from deciding whether to retain, rent or sell the property.
Someone still needs to manage the house.
MG Property Solutions becomes the local point of contact responsible for protecting, documenting and coordinating the real estate asset until the estate is ready for its next decision.

Services
Property Oversight From the First Visit Through the Final Decision
Estate property management in Marin County rarely follows a fixed script. We scale our involvement to what the property and the representative actually need, from a single documented inspection to full ongoing oversight.
While the estate is being administered
Property Security
Coordination of locksmiths, access, keys, alarms, gates, vacant-property security, and other measures needed to protect the home.
Ongoing Property Inspections
Scheduled property visits to identify leaks, damage, maintenance issues, security concerns, landscaping problems, or other changes in condition.
Maintenance and Vendor Coordination
We coordinate qualified vendors and contractors for repairs, estimates, inspections, landscaping, cleaning, and routine maintenance.
Authorized Property Cleanout Coordination
At the written direction of the authorized representative, we coordinate approved property cleanouts, hauling, donations, cleaning, landscaping, and other work necessary to stabilize or prepare the property.
Documentation and Reporting
Photographic documentation and written updates so the executor, trustee, fiduciary, attorney, or family has a clear record of the property's condition and work performed.
Once the estate decides what happens next
Rental Preparation and Management
If the estate decides to retain the property, we can prepare the home for leasing, market it, place a qualified tenant, and provide ongoing property management.
Sale Preparation
If the decision is ultimately made to sell, we can coordinate repairs, cleanout, preparation, vendor access, and other property logistics necessary before the home is listed.
Protecting a vacant property
Vacancy & Insurance Coordination
Property observations & coordination
A vacant home may have property or occupancy issues that should be communicated to the estate's insurance professional. We help identify and document those issues and coordinate with the authorized representative so relevant information can be shared.
Insurance guidance
MG Property Solutions does not provide insurance advice. Coverage questions and policy requirements should be reviewed with the estate's insurance professional.
