About Daniel Myers, Buffalo’s Probate Realtor

When a loved one passes away, selling the family home is often one of the last things executors and heirs feel prepared to handle. That’s why Buffalo-area families turn to Probate Realtor Dan Myers.

Dan is a problem solver. True to that nature, he chose probate real estate because he saw how overwhelming the process is for many people. He knew there were families who needed someone to guide them through it and help them find a clear path forward.

Probate home sales are different from any other because they involve court requirements and deadlines that don’t exist in a traditional real estate transaction.

For executors and heirs, dealing with those legalities is just one more burden during a stressful and difficult time. They’re already faced with maintaining the house, preparing it for sale, dealing with personal property, and working through the grief of loss, all at the same time.

Dan can’t alleviate their grief, but he can relieve the rest of the burdens, including the confusion and uncertainty. Toward that end, he begins his service by explaining the entire process, so his clients always know what to expect next.
Then, as a Certified Probate Real Estate Specialist, Dan communicates with his client’s probate attorney and the Erie County Surrogate Court to ensure that all timelines and obligations are met. Probate attorneys throughout Erie County refer families to Dan because they know he understands the Surrogate Court Process and helps his clients understand as well.

In addition to handling the legal issues, Dan has gathered a team of local experts who can take care of everything from house cleaning and yard care, to snow removal, to holding estate sales, to providing financial and legal advice.

He is happy to coordinate these services so his probate clients can focus on their families.

Before becoming a Realtor, Dan’s career was in recruitment and franchise development. The negotiation and relationship-building skills he developed in those roles now benefit his probate clients as he helps them deal with property issues and complicated family dynamics.

And of course, when all is ready, Dan uses his marketing skills to help his clients reach the end goal: selling the house for the highest possible price.

Ask Dan’s clients what sets him apart, and you’ll hear the same themes repeated: professionalism, patience, clear, consistent, and prompt communication, and the ability to guide families through one of life’s most difficult transitions. Clients feel protected because he views problems as situations to be met head-on, then solved.

Dan always does the right thing, and his clients know it. One client stated it succinctly when he said: “Dan had my back throughout the transaction.”

On the personal side, Dan is a life-long resident of Buffalo. He’s a parishioner and volunteer at Our Lady of Victory National Shrine & Basilica, Lackawanna, NY. and an avid Buffalo Bills, Buffalo Sabres, and University of Buffalo Football Bulls fan. He’s also a member of the WNY Indoor Spinning Teams.

Families facing probate need someone they can trust to guide them through the process with knowledge, compassion, and confidence. In Erie County, Dan Myers is that person.
