The Three Most Common Title Problems — and What Maryland Law Says
Most stuck sales come down to one of three issues. The Maryland People's Law Library and the Register of Wills explain the estate side; here is the plain-language version.
- Heirs who disagree. You inherited together as tenants-in-common, and not everyone wants the same thing. Any one co-owner can petition the court to force a sale — but there are calmer, cheaper paths first.
- A clouded or tangled title. A relative died without a will, or the deed was never updated, leaving unclear or multiple owners. Title has to be sorted out before the home can be sold cleanly.
- Title still in a deceased person's name. You cannot sell a house that is legally still owned by someone who has passed. It must go through probate first so the personal representative has authority to convey it.
A Word on Reverse Mortgages
If a reverse mortgage is involved, here are the reassuring basics. A Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) is insured by the federal government through HUD, and it is a non-recourse loan — meaning you or your heirs can never owe more than the home is worth. When the last borrower passes away or permanently moves out (including into long-term care), the loan becomes due. As the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau explains, the family can sell the home, pay off the loan balance, and keep any remaining equity. Selling promptly is often the best way to capture that equity before interest grows.

I am so happy to have found Tyler and Brett at ACE. In a world where everyone is out for themselves, these men are both a breath of fresh air. They are upfront and honest and made our transaction so seamless and easy. Very easy to work with and I will 100% recommend them to others and do business with them again, given the opportunity.
Olga Michaelidis
Calling Ace Homebuyers was the best decision I made when looking to help sell my parent’s house. Tyler and Brett are not only very professional, but they made the process super easy. They took care of everything. After my Dad passed away, we need to move my mom closer to my siblings. This required us to sell the house that my parents spent 41 years in.

Why a Concrete Cash Offer Breaks the Deadlock
Long-term care in Maryland is expensive, and many families rely on Medicaid. It is important to know that Maryland has a Medicaid Estate Recovery Program that may seek reimbursement for long-term-care costs after a recipient's death, though recovery is deferred while a surviving spouse, a minor child, or a disabled child lives in the home. How and when to sell can affect how equity is preserved, so this is an area where good advice matters. Start with the official resources — Maryland Health Connection and the Maryland Department of Aging — and consult an elder-law attorney. ACE can buy the home; we do not give legal or tax advice.
What a Cash Sale With ACE Homebuyers Looks Like
- Step 1: Call us or fill out the form. Tell us about the home and the family's situation. There is no pressure and no obligation.
- Step 2: We assess the home as-is. No repairs, no cleaning out decades of belongings before we look, no parade of strangers.
- Step 3: You receive a fair written cash offer, often within 24 hours, that the whole family can review.
- Step 4: You choose the timeline. We can move slowly while you settle a parent, or close in as little as 7 days when a deadline cannot wait.
- Step 5: At closing, the home is sold, any reverse mortgage is paid off, and the remaining equity goes to the family — for care, comfort, or legacy.
