Kristina Jarczyk
Inherited Property Specialist
REALTOR® with RE/MAX Future
Meet Kristina
I got into real estate as a young single mother and found my calling helping families through big moves. Twenty-eight years later, I focus on the moves most agents shy away from: inherited and estate homes.
I know what it's like to walk into a house filled with someone's whole life. I take the real estate weight off your shoulders and work alongside your attorney. I'm happy to help in English, Polish or Slovak.
How I help
One calm decision at a time, from "where do I begin?" to closing day.
Inherited Home Sales
You were named executor, and suddenly there's a house full of belongings and a probate process nobody explained. I'll give you a clear plan.
- Honest market value and options
- Sell as-is or prep for top dollar
- A timeline that fits the probate process
Executor Support
Taxes, insurance, a house sitting empty, family to keep on the same page. I handle the real estate side so you can focus on everything else.
- Coordination with your probate attorney
- Trusted clean-out and repair partners
- One point of contact, even from out of town
For Attorneys and Advisors
A referral is a reflection on you. Your client's family gets patience and respect, and you get regular updates without having to chase me down.
- Works with executors, administrators and heirs
- Sale timed to the estate's authority
- Regular updates to you and the family

Questions executors ask
Can I sell the house before probate is finished?
It depends on your authority from the court. I work with your attorney so the sale happens at the right point in the process.
Do I have to empty the house first?
Not always. We'll talk through selling as-is versus clearing it out, and I can connect you with clean-out help.
I live out of state. Can you still help?
Yes. I can be your eyes and ears on the property and keep you updated every step of the way.
What does it cost to talk with you?
Nothing. The first conversation is free and there's no obligation.
Real People. Real Situations. Real Results.
Whatever you've inherited, you don't have to do this alone.
Start with a free, no-pressure conversation.
