Probate sale

[Andy Chu]

I have a property locked up and in escrow for the past 3 months and the court date is on Friday. The real estate was signed off by the heirs in December, and prices have since become a feeding frenzy, and moved upwards. The listing agent stated that it may be in our best interest to attend the probate court sale, since people have the right to bid at the court.

I thought probate court was a formality because all contingencies must be removed prior to submitting for court approval. Any ideas? I would hate to have done everything just to be bid up on the date of court.
