Probate in Texas

I have a lead on a property that is currently in probate. Heirship is being contested by an alleged child of the deceased whose paternity was never established. The rightful heir is doing everything he can to set things right, but is in need of legal assistance at this point. Obviously, I can't list the property while it's in probate, but I'm of the understanding that an investor can still possibly buy the property. I also realize that many investors have real estate attorneys on their team just for this type of situation. Any suggestions on how I can possibly find an investor interested in buying the property and willing to assist with the legalities of such a transaction?

Anyone can buy the home...they just won't likely get title insurance with this known issue that would have to be disclosed to the underwriter.
