Flatirons Locksmiths; As an Executor, it is Important to Change the Locks of the Estate in Broomfield CO.
After a loved one dies, there are many issues that come up that have to be attended to. One of the tasks if you are the executor of the estate is to take care of the home that was left to you and any other heirs. However, sometimes it can be confusing as to who has access to the home. This is why it is important to notify all of the heirs that you will change the locks so that people not involved with the estate cannot gain access. This way, only the people who are supposed to have access to the home are the ones with keys.
Sometimes a loved one may have had caregivers, a housekeeper, or any number of people that had keys to their home. Unfortunately, after that loved one has passed away, those that had keys are still able to come and go as they please and any valuables that are to go to the heirs are not protected from theft or damage.
This is why it is important to have the locks changed as soon as possible. As the executor you must inform all of the heirs of the lock change and provide them with keys but this way you are not only aware of who has access to the home but everything in it is protected. It’s not always possible to get the keys back from whoever might have had one and it’s not as if copies can’t be made so it’s important to start fresh with a new set of keys.
