Newly purchased Jacksonville home stuck in probate.

[Jeff Hunter]

Hi, we just bought our 2nd investment home in Jax. Paid cash in Nov 2017 for a 10 day close. Seller agreed and signed the paperwork. 10 days later...probate issues.

I assumed it would sail through escrow and booked a flight out there. Had a  steep discount ticket I had to use anyway. House and location is every bit as nice as expected. We want to keep it, just getting impatient. I did find out the same lady owned the house next door and it sold in Sept but was in a trust.

How long does take? Any way to speed it up? Is my interest really safe?

Thanks in advance,

Jeff
