Quick answer: the ordinary 5-6% realtor commission applies as usual, plus a reasonable executor fee with no fixed percentage — typically running 2% to 4% of the estate's value in practice. See how this plays out for your own numbers in the Mississippi probate real estate sale calculator.
No percentage schedule at all
A practical range, not a legal one
Typical executor fees run 2% to 4% of the estate's value in practice — a useful planning range, though the court can approve more or less depending on the estate's actual complexity and the work genuinely performed.
Waiving the fee is common
Executors can waive their fee entirely or accept a reduced amount — a frequent choice when the executor is also a beneficiary, since taking the fee creates taxable income that a waived fee avoids.
The attorney's fee is equally unscheduled
Mississippi has no statutory fee schedule for attorneys either. Fee structures vary: some firms charge flat fees of $2,500 to $5,000 for straightforward estates, while others charge 3% to 5% of the gross estate value.
A local probate attorney can review your estate — many offer a free consultation.
The §91-7-299 reasonableness standard applies the same way whether the estate is administered in any of Mississippi's 82 counties.
