1. Inventory the property: Make a list of all the assets that make up the estate, including real estate, personal property, and financial accounts.
2. Protect the property: Ensure that all property is protected from damage, theft, or loss. For example, secure the decedent’s home by changing the locks and setting up an alarm system.
3. Obtain insurance: Consider obtaining insurance coverage for the estate property to protect it from damage, theft, or loss.
4. Keep the property in good condition: Maintain the estate property in good condition and make any necessary repairs.
5. Limit access to the property: Limit access to the estate property to only those who have a legitimate reason to be there.
6. Keep accurate records: Keep accurate records of all transactions related to the estate property, including expenses, repairs, and income received.
7. Consult with an attorney: Consider consulting with an attorney to ensure that all legal requirements are met and that the property is protected during the probate process.
