It depends on how much money and time you have in your hands, as well as the sentimental value of the property. Note that there are upkeep costs and taxes to consider if you decide to keep the property. If you don’t have your own house or just really like the place and have the means to upgrade it as necessary, then keep it. But if you already have a home you love and it’ll be too much work and money to maintain your inherited property, you shouldn’t feel guilty about selling it.

Distance is also a factor to consider. If the inherited home is a few states away, you might not want to fly out each time to check up on its condition.
