Answers About Clearing a Home After a Loss in Bacliff, TX

Does the Texas Crime Victims' Compensation Program pay for any of this?

Only when the death involved a crime, and only for crime scene clean-up. The program pays up to $2,250 for crimes after July 14, 2016. Insurance is used first, and claims must be filed within three years. Questions go to the Attorney General's office at (800) 983-9933.

Will the neighbors know?

Crews work quietly and handle the job with discretion. Ask about arrival and parking details when you call. If a landlord needs to notify other tenants, that decision belongs to the landlord.

Will important papers and keepsakes be protected?

Yes, you can ask how the team protects them. Many teams set aside papers, photos and jewelry first and return them to the family. Tell the team what to look for. Photos and papers are usually found early, before large items are moved.

Can the house be sold after a cleanout?

Yes. Once it has been cleared and cleaned, and any repairs are done, a home can be listed or returned. Questions about what must be disclosed are best answered by a real estate attorney or agent.

Who pays for an estate cleanout?

In many cases the cost is paid from the person's estate, by family members or by the person named to handle the estate. Insurance may help with biohazard cleanup but is less likely to pay for sorting and hauling. Questions about authority and payment are best answered by an attorney.

What if the death was unattended and the home needs biohazard cleanup first?

Then biohazard cleanup comes before sorting. A team removes affected materials, cleans, disinfects and treats odor. After that, the home can be sorted safely. Many teams can do both parts, so ask when you call.
