You're dealing with an inherited house, and that changes the order of operations.
Based on your answers, this isn't a standard listing. Inherited and estate properties have steps that have to happen before the house can go on the market at all, and getting them out of order is what costs people months.
Three things worth knowing
Clear title comes first
Before anything can be sold, the estate has to have the legal authority to sell it. Depending on how the estate was set up, that can be quick or it can take a while. It is the single biggest driver of your timeline, and it's worth finding out where you stand before you plan around a sale date.
You probably don't need to renovate
Most people who inherit a house assume they have to fix it up first, and pay for that out of pocket. Often that's not the best move. There is real buyer demand for houses that need work in this area, and the money you'd spend on updates doesn't always come back in the sale price.
More than one person is usually involved
Siblings, an executor, an attorney. Everybody needs the same information at the same time or the decision stalls. I'd rather get everyone on one call early than repeat myself four times over six weeks.
I'm a Realtor, not an attorney.
Nothing here is legal or tax advice, and estate situations vary a great deal depending on how things were set up. For questions about the estate itself, probate, or taxes, you need a licensed attorney and a CPA. What I can tell you about is the house, the market, and what selling it actually looks like.
