Megan and the team at Modernest Realty are fantastic. I was in need of a realtor to help me sell my uncle's property in Texas. He passed away unexpectedly, and I had no clue where to begin with his property. In walks Megan! Well, really, I received a delightful reach out call from Megan offering her help and services. She set herself apart with her care for my family's situation and for her deep knowledge of the real estate market. She and her team did a beautiful job of marketing the house, helping us receive a good offer, and making the closing process seamless. I would work with Megan and her team again in a heartbeat. They made a hard situation much easier and left me feeling grateful that people like Megan and her team exist in our world. I can't say enough positive things about Modernest Realty.

“After my relatives’ untimely death, I was appointed executor of the estate. That entailed selling their house. Megan did an excellent job of listing, showing, and selling the house. We had an immediate offer and closed in about one month. Thank you so much, Megan.”

How we help our clients

We are the Dallas and Fort Worth probate real estate experts in resourcefully positioning a property to command top dollar to benefit the estate and its heirs.

We recognize that these homes contain years of love, care, and memories, and we treat them accordingly.
