When may an estate be cleared?

Generally only once the legal situation is settled, usually after probate is granted or with the consent of all heirs or the court commissioner (notary). We recommend a brief consultation with the responsible notary's office beforehand, and are happy to support you with that.

How quickly does the apartment need to be cleared after a death?

For rented apartments, rent continues to run until handover, so time is often of the essence. We clear on short notice, usually within a few days, and hand over broom-clean to the property management.
