Common situations in San Bernardino County
How each one works locally — and why a cash sale can help. General information, not legal advice.
Probate and inherited houses
Estates for Rialto houses go through the Superior Court of California, County of San Bernardino. The personal representative signs the sale, and the court's role depends on how much authority it granted when it issued letters.
More on probate and inherited houses →Behind on the mortgage
In Rialto, a lender usually forecloses through a trustee: a notice of default and then a notice of trustee's sale are recorded with the San Bernardino County Assessor-Recorder-County Clerk before the house goes to auction. You own the house until the sale, so you can usually still sell.
More on behind on the mortgage →Behind on property taxes
Rialto property taxes are paid to San Bernardino County's tax collector. After several years in default, the county can sell the parcel at its tax-defaulted property sale; back taxes are paid from your proceeds if you sell first.

The City of Rialto's code enforcement responds to complaints about property maintenance, abandoned vehicles, illegal dumping and vacant buildings.

Unlawful detainer cases for Rialto rentals are heard by the San Bernardino County Superior Court, and many tenancies fall under California's just-cause eviction rules. You can sell with tenants in place — paying, behind, or mid-eviction.

Selling for cash in Rialto: questions
I inherited a Rialto rental with a tenant who pays late. Do I have to evict before selling?
No. A cash buyer can buy the house with the tenant in place and take over the lease. If you'd rather deliver it empty, a negotiated move-out is often faster than an eviction case.
How fast can I sell my house for cash in Rialto?
California sales close through an escrow company, with a title company insuring the title; escrow pays off the loan and any liens before you're paid. Once you accept an offer, most San Bernardino County cash sales close in one to three weeks — sooner if there's no estate or lien paperwork to clear, or later on a date you choose.
