Another step to take, the probate process probably hasn't started, try pulling the death certificate from your county coroner's office. 

Make sure the comparable properties used are of the same type and reasonably in the same size, number of bed/bath, etc, and that they didn't cross into a different zip code.  

Hopefully everything goes through.It is a 48 unit mix of 1,2, & 3 bed units.

When it comes to electrical you really don't want to skimp considering it can cause a fire and even death if done improper.

Going to make for some really long days (wake at 4:30a, drive to Scottsdale, 7a-3p work, drive to Prescott, 5:30p-8:30p class - I'll be home just in time to tuck my kiddos into bed).....

Here are the home details:North Miami Beach, FL 331623 beds 2 baths 1,800 sqft (Lot: 8,300) sqftWe own this home outright - purchased it for around $175 in early 2010's.Given comps the home is worth around ~300k.However I just performed an inspection and it wasn't great.

@Riley Gilson  they are talking about a LICENSEE  not a non licensed person.selling or assigning contracts is one thing.. putting adds in craigslist describing bed bath and pictures of home like  you own it is another.. or having a website with homes that appear to be owned by the wholesaler that is clearly selling RE without a license..

My initial focus is on rental properties (SFH that needs updating, at least 3 beds and 2 baths, $200-300k, and in the NW Chicago suburbs).
