It is fine for a foreclosure to price drop, but in a conventional listing, it can be the kiss of death.

Try searching something like "california disclosing death when selling house."

Don't forget to disclose the death to renters and buyers if the tenant died in the house. 

(For any chart geeks out there, we have had a "death cross" in the US10yr).  

I’m in rather a sad and precarious position at the moment and wanted to connect with the community for some sage advice.My partner’s grandmother is very sick and has signed a transfer upon death deed to her daughter, my partner’s mother, to all of her property in Holland, TX.

I have the choice of Locking the basis at the time of death or on the date 6 months after(do not know the specifics how you do this).

Huge companies like Pepsi, P&G, JC Penney and others pulled money from direct mail and TV ads to put it into digital, and are now slashing their digital budget and putting money back into traditional channels.Industry experts were predicting the death of direct mail a few years ago, but the numbers actually show direct mail growing year over year for the last several years.You're right that direct mail to absentee landlords is a pretty crowded space.

Every now and then, I'd be able to find a death certificate, which would have the decedent's residence.

After the closing of this home which was inspected and punched out fully, my understanding is - the tenant went through a sickness or death of a child and got divorced and took it all out on the property (as you can see.)  

He'd have to send a copy of the death certificate to notify the lender.
