Does this mean that he property value has gone up and can be sold, ideally for 30k more?

I sold my commerce city home beginning of 2017.

If you have the date of death, then you can go to your county vital records and get an informational copy of his death certificate - if this is in California.

Dropping the price may get it sold faster.

I believe one of our homes sold to someone who used one.

Here are a couple properties that have previously sold down there, you may know whether the one you are looking at is comparable or not: https://www.redfin.com/MN/Northfield/710-1st-St-W-... https://www.redfin.com/MN/Northfield/401-Plum-St-S...

(Not very good)I own a 8 unit in the area that does about 30k NOI so this place has the potential to do around 60k with good management and a bit of reno.The place sold to a cash buyer for 650k.How are us "investors" supposed to compete with that??

@Kami Carlson, Yeah I've setup to talk with my real estate agent who had sold me my original current house. 

99 percent of all properties being sold are looking for market price.

Here in FLorida, in the 2010-2015, I sold almost exclusively SF investor homes (about 200 of them, to investors from Cali, and abroad), and as values rose, and ROI's dropped, I found the natural progression was toward multi, to get worthwhile returns for my clients.
