Selling a house in Exeter: common questions
Does a well and septic system make the house harder to sell?
Not to us. Every Exeter house is on a well and septic, and I Buy Rhode Island Houses buys them as they are. If the house still has a cesspool, Rhode Island law requires it to be replaced within 12 months after the sale and doesn't say who pays, so it's part of the deal rather than a job you do first.
Do you buy land in Exeter as well as houses?
Yes. I Buy Rhode Island Houses buys Exeter land for cash, with or without a house on it. If the land is enrolled in the state's farm, forest or open space program, our page on selling land in Rhode Island explains what that means for a sale.
The estate is in Exeter's probate court. Can we sell?
Yes. Under Exeter's charter, the Town Council appoints the probate judge, and an estate is usually opened in the town where the person lived.
