Executor’s Burden LIFTED: Maximizing Estate Value While Protecting Your Fiduciary Duty.

Serving as an Executor is one of the most demanding tasks imaginable: managing grief while simultaneously navigating complex legal, financial, and family obligations.

You are not just selling a home; you are fulfilling a fiduciary duty. This requires a real estate partner who understands more than just the London market—they must understand probate timelines, legal risks, and the imperative of accurate appraisal.

At Envelope Real Estate, we specialize in Estate Sales in London, Ontario. We are your single point of contact for turning a complex responsibility into a simplified, auditable process that protects you and maximizes returns for the beneficiaries.

As a seasoned real estate broker with over 24 years of experience in London, Ontario, I’m regularly contacted by executors and POA holders seeking guidance on home values, market conditions, and the next steps in selling an estate property.

Fiduciary Protection: Your Risk is Our Responsibility

  • We manage the sale process with documentation that meets the strictest court standards—ensuring transparency for every beneficiary and fulfilling your legal requirements.
  • Estate-Specific Valuation: We don’t just pull a CMA. We provide an auditable, documented valuation strategy that stands up to scrutiny, often coordinating directly with estate lawyers and accountants.
  • London Probate Timeline Integration: We structure the marketing, listing, and closing dates to account for the unique constraints of the Ontario probate process, minimizing holding costs and accelerating distribution.

Selling a home as part of an estate is not just a transaction — it’s a responsibility that requires sensitivity, professionalism, and trusted support.

My team and I bring the patience, empathy, and practical experience needed to handle every detail with care.

This Siblings Experience (Five of Them!)

Thank you Ty for your support, help and guidance throughout the process, despite some ot the snags and challenges that we faced. It has all worked out well in the end and we are grateful to you for seeing it through with us. All the best to you, Sincerely,

Esther and Rob Fischer

Real Estate for Executors, London Ontario, Briefs:

Legal

A lawyer will ensure you carry out your duties as an executor without raising any questions among the beneficiaries.

Probate

Probate is a legal process that proves the will is valid in court. You can’t do anything with the property until the Letters of Administration are filed and approved, temporarily transferring the property title to you. 

No Will

When a person dies without a valid will, it is called intestacy. Ontario’s Succession Law Reform Act sets out how the estate is distributed when this happens. Generally, when a person dies without a will, the people who can inherit their estate include their spouse and closest next-of-kin. A common law spouse does not inherit under the Succession Law Reform Act.

The Difference Between Power of Attorney (POA) and Executor

An executor acts on behalf of an estate after death. They care for probate, pay final taxes, and distribute assets to your beneficiaries. A power of attorney (POA) has the legal authority to act on your behalf while you’re still alive.

Assets exempt from probate

  • Property with joint ownership with another person.
  • Real estate/property owned outside of Ontario.
  • Joint accounts with a beneficiary designation.
  • Investment and savings accounts with beneficiary designations such as RRSPs, TFSAs, and RRIFs.
  • CPP Death benefits.
  • Property held in a living trust.
