These are just a few of the factors that can lengthen the probate process. As a result, it is a reasonable estimation that an estate will remain open on average for about six months. Obviously, some could be open for as little as four months while others could last upwards of nine months or more. Each estate is different.
The seller can continue to market the property and take back up offers in case the first buyerâs deal falls through. The option period usually lasts between five to ten days, but can last as long as thirty days. It can also be extended (by mutual agreement) for a negotiated amount. The fee is paid directly to the seller and is non-refundable (it is not sent to the title company). Option period money must also be paid within 48 hours.
