When an estate includes real property, the sale can become the longest, messiest line item in your case — or the one part you never have to think about. Gia Freer, Broker of Record at PBP Real Estate, has spent years handling the real estate side of probate for attorneys, personal representatives, and families across South Florida. Refer the property; we handle the details and keep you informed at every step.

What We Take Off Your Plate

How the Referral Works

  1. You introduce us — a call or an email with the case basics.
  2. We assess the property — condition, occupancy, pricing, and a recommended plan, delivered to you and the personal representative in writing.
  3. You stay as informed as you want to be — full copies of everything, or just the milestones. Your preference.
  4. The property sells; your case moves forward. No surprises at closing, no loose ends in the file.

No referral fees, no fee-sharing, no strings — Florida Bar rules and our own standards keep it that way. What you get is a competent broker who makes you look good to your client.

Frequently Asked Questions from Attorneys

Do you pay referral fees to attorneys?

No. Florida Bar rules restrict fee-sharing between attorneys and real estate brokers, and we would not offer it regardless. The value of the relationship is a clean transaction and a well-served client.

Can a property be listed before the estate is fully administered?

Often, depending on the case posture and court requirements. We coordinate listing timing with you so marketing never gets ahead of the court — and we prepare pricing and condition documentation in the meantime so no time is lost.

How do you handle occupied estate properties?

With patience and documentation. Whether the occupant is a family member, a tenant, or unauthorized, we work within the direction of the personal representative and counsel, and we document condition and communications for the file.

Do you work with our in-house title company?

Yes — happily. If your firm provides title and escrow, the closing stays with your team. We coordinate directly with your title staff and keep the transaction on their timeline.

Client-facing explainers you can send with a referral: the personal representative's guide to selling a house in Florida probate, homestead property in a Florida probate, selling a house held in a living trust and when heirs disagree about selling an inherited house.

See what your home is worth

No instant estimate can read a renovation, a view or a lot line. Tell us about the property and Gia Freer, our Broker of Record, prepares a written opinion of value by hand from current BeachesMLS sales - within one business day, with the sales attached. See what your home is worth.

This page is general information from a licensed Florida real estate brokerage; it is not legal or tax advice. Talk to a probate attorney or tax professional about your situation.

Estate property

Need the home's value as of the date of death?

Gia Freer prepares a written opinion of value as of the date of death, with the comparable closings from the six to twelve months before that date attached. Personal representatives, heirs, the estate's CPA and the estate's attorney can all request it; you do not need to be selling.

It is not an appraisal, and no computer generates it. Sales that closed after the date of death are left out, even when they are the easiest ones to find. Whether the estate needs a formal appraisal instead is a question for the estate's CPA and probate attorney, and if the file suggests it, we will say so.

How it works

  1. Send the property address, the county and the date of death.
  2. Gia pulls the closings from before that date, houses with houses and condos with condos, and reviews the property's condition with you.
  3. You receive the written opinion with the comparables attached within two business days.
