Why this exists
Jordan — ExecutorPilot founder & New Jersey executor
When a family friend named me executor of his New Jersey estate, I had zero experience and I was also the beneficiary of his home, which had equity. I asked an attorney what it would cost. The answer was $18,000 minimum — and that didn't include anything out of the ordinary.
Every dollar of that fee would have come straight out of what I was set to inherit.
So I did it myself. I met every deadline, sold the house, handled the taxes, and negotiated a $2,998 medical debt down by half — all from my kitchen table, without taking a day off work. I kept the inheritance, and the estate even pays the executor a fee for the work.
ExecutorPilot is everything I learned, organized so the next person doesn't have to figure it out the hard way. Start with your two deadlines above.
