Step 3: List and trade
According to Lianjia’s latest statistics, when selling inherited properties, you need to focus on:
| link | Average time taken | FAQ |

| price evaluation | 3-7 days | Heritage houses are discounted by 10-15% |
| Signing and transfer | 15-30 days | Missing signature of co-owner |
3. Answers to hot questions (replied from Zhihu’s highly praised replies)
1.Q: What should I do if my siblings don’t cooperate?
A: You can file a lawsuit to divide the property, but you need to prepare complete proof of kinship (including the death certificate of the deceased heir).
2.Q: The mortgage was not paid off when my father passed away?
A: According to the regulations of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the heir must continue to repay the loan or negotiate with the bank to "remortgage", otherwise the bank may auction the property.
3.Q: How to deal with an old house over 20 years old?
A: Pay attention to the issue of back payment of land transfer fees. Take Shanghai as an example:
For houses completed before 1995, additional floor and land price × 30% × age factor must be paid.
4. Professional advice
1. It is recommended to complete the Notarial Certificate of Inheritance before selling the property to avoid breach of contract due to property rights issues during the transaction.
2. For properties with disputes, judicial auctions may be considered, but attention should be paid to the risk of failed auctions.
3. Tips for new regulations in 2023: If the inheritance house is more than 5 years old and is the only residence of the heir, you can apply for personal income tax reduction or exemption.
By sorting out recent hot data and typical cases, I hope this article can provide you with a clear solution path. It is recommended to consult professional lawyers and real estate agents based on the actual situation to protect legitimate rights and interests.
