A closing / title company can handle the transaction but may want to get a lawyer to draft the documents.Assuming you are buying in your name and not a LLC - if a LLC then there would need to be additional docs like a authorization for LLC to borrow $ etc

If you need assistance with the setup, my best friend is a lawyer who specializes in these matters and can help.

I need a reliable virtual address and digital mail forwarding service that can handle digital mail forwarding, scanning, and other essential business needs.I’m looking for something flexible, secure, and cost-effective.

I suggested to contact a local title lawyer who knows those type of transactions. 

I haven't heard of inheritance tax liens effecting a new buyer though.

With the right tools and a bit of hands-on management, you could effectively manage the property yourself and cater to this steady stream of potential tenants.

Lawyer up, talk to your accountant, and what is your realtor saying?

Better hire NY lawyer for consultation and ask the solution

I'm also not too keen on a partial note as I feel my position in the repayment if a default occurred would risk me losing it all, since all lawyer fees etc get paid first!

This can be a good thing and it can also have negative effects in some instances.
