We Ease Your Burden During A Probate Situation
There are A LOT of ways we can help families and frankly, we don't care how we help, just that we help. We just need to understand your situation before we know how we can help. Let your problem be our problem. We are your guide during the probate process in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Hello, I'm Dale Corpus!
YOUR PARTNER IN PROBATE REAL ESTATE
Being designated as a Personal Representative can seem entirely overwhelming. At a time where you may be experiencing grief, stress, confusion and loss - that is the last thing you need. I truly aim to help you - whether you plan to sell, rent or keep the property, or even if you have no idea where to start. Whether your needs relate to real estate or not, I am your advocate. You don’t have to go through any of this on your own! I am truly here to help you in any way we can.
I can handle just about anything you might need. Check out my services tab on this s to see some of the the major and most commonly needed services I can provide.
Give me a call or send me an email if you would like to set up a time to meet and discuss everything. I am happy to provide a free consultation & evaluation of the property. I know it may not be the right time to get started. Please know that whenever you feel the time is right - I will be ready to help you however I can.
Where Passion Meets Purpose
Perception is everything and most people don’t trust what they’ve never heard of so let me get to the point. I am a local professional who built a Social Enterprise (that means everything I do has to help others more than it does me but turns a profit) around the situation you are in right now. I want to make a difference, and one of the most challenging situations I’ve been able to help people through is Probate, so I learned all I could and then built a team of professionals to help me. Most of the families we help are overwhelmed when we first talk but amazed at just how much of the responsibility and hard work our team can absorb. You don’t know what you don’t know…
Our model is really simple. All we do is…
Research court records to find people to help
Reach out to explain there is help you didn’t know about
Listen to your challenges and goals
Present you with all available options
Design and implement a strategy based on your goals
Provide professional advice and guidance on handling the Estate
Establish the value of the personal property and real estate
Coordinate the estate sale & personal property donations
Clean properties out
Help find suitable housing & relocate family members
Sell the real estate
Direct heirs on how to invest the proceeds to meet their goals
Help heirs sell & upgrade their current home
Guide heirs on buying rental property
Show heirs how to plan for the future so your family NEVER goes through Probate again
Deliver on the promises we made
I have made a commitment to making a difference in my community and I’m proud of the service we provide. I know this is a sensitive time and you didn’t ask for help but I also know my team can make a difference.If you could use some help all you have to do is pick up the phone and chat with us. We don’t charge anything up front so you’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
What Makes Us Different?
What we do is probably different than what you would expect and definitely different from other real estate agents and investors. Yes, we're REALTORS but we do more than most of our clients expect, including...
Listening Before Speaking: It's important that we understand your situation and your goals before we know how we can help. There are A LOT of ways we can help families and frankly, we don't care how we help, just that we help.
Helping Families Transition: Whether you or a family member need a rental, long-term care, you are downsizing or you are upgrading we make sure we understand the situation first then take action to make the transition easier for all involved.
Selling Houses FAST: We sometimes buy houses and we work with many local investors who are always willing to pay cash and closing costs for the right deal. We can close as quickly as you're comfortable with.
Getting Houses Empty & Clean: Our team can sell personal property at auction or tag sale then donate what's left so it doesn't just go to the landfill. Once empty our cleaners come through to do the rest.
Getting Houses Sold for Top Dollar: This one we do as REALTORS. We have a proven system for selling homes for the most amount of money in the shortest amount of time. Sometimes that's easy and other times it requires some work from our contractors. Either way we make sure we understand YOUR goals then provide options for YOU to choose from. Oh, by the way...we have to back that up to get paid you know!
Preserving Wealth: This can mean anything from simply buying stocks to investing in a whole life policy to an entire financial plan that will help you build wealth and avoid future probate. Our certified Financial Planners and CPAs will take a look at your goals and present you with options you probably never even considered.

Looking To Understand Your Options?
Whether you plan to sell your property, repair your property, rent out your property, or keep it - I have solutions and services that work for you. The list below shows just a few of the value services I can provide you:
- Family Law & Probate Attorney Referral: Legalities are important, but very stressful. I can connect you with a trusted professional attorney in our area that will work in tandem with my team so that nothing falls through the cracks. If you already have an attorney, I would be happy to introduce myself and work with them to create a plan of action together.
- Repairs, Upkeep, Remodeling: Whether you know what you plan to do with the property or not - some maintenance is almost always required. This can range anywhere from lawn care, pest control, or plumbing - to re-roofing, flooring, structural repairs or even a full-scale remodel to maximize sale price. I have a network of local service providers that I am confident will treat my clients with respect & professionalism.
When it comes to the sale of the property, if that is the route you choose - I can offer many solutions. A quick & easy cash sale can be arranged via my network of local investors, if that is necessary. If you are in less of a hurry to sell, my expertise in Real Estate will allow me to professionally market your home and sell it for the highest price. I can also assist if you decide to rent the property - let's talk about options when we sit down to create our plan of action.
Looking To Sell?
HELPING YOU SELL FOR TOP DOLLAR
I have made it a specific focus of my business as to work with families in these tough situations. I realize from my own experiences that the challenges you are dealing with as the Personal Representative are different than a normal home sale. Below are some of the services my Probate Specialization team can provide for you during a sale:
- Handle any personal property in need of removal: The family can remove whatever they wish to keep and our Estate Sale Partners and/or cleaning crews will handle everything else and the Estate receives the net proceeds.
- Make necessary repairs/improvements: Our Contractors do any type of work from minor repairs to full renovations. Often investing in the right repairs/improvements will allow you to sell for the highest possible price in the shortest amount of time.
- List and sell the property on the open market: First of all, I am an excellent, highly experienced agent and I can create a strategy to get the property sold in the shortest time for the highest price using our proven system. On average, we sell our homes faster and for more than the average REALTOR.
- Bring you a Cash Offer in 24 hours: If the situation calls for a "quick sale", we work with several cash buyers willing to purchase properties in "AS IS" condition with or without the remaining personal property. These buyers often pay all the closing costs and close, based on your timeline. In fact, we work with Bay Area investors who are looking to buy property in all Bay Area counties immediately.
- We can also arrange for almost anything else that might be required: This might include specialized cleaning services, setting up an auction for the property or contents, pest control, plumbing, lawn care, property staging, or even connecting you with a great probate or family law attorney.
- Keep You In The Loop: I will send you (and any other heirs you designate) a WEEKLY STATUS REPORT on all aspects of the process. Our goal is to make this as easy as possible for all concerned, but to keep you informed each step of the way to allow you to make the best decisions for you & your family.
I hope you take comfort in knowing that you don’t have to do it all yourself, I am on your team. I can truly help with the entire process and guide you through any and all necessary steps and decisions.
We’re here to help you in any way we can during this frequently difficult time. So, whether you are ready to get started right away, or just need some information, please feel free to call me or send me a message and we can schedule a time that works best for you.
