<prompt> Human: A couple of weeks ago I was contacted by an executor to let me know that a recently passed relative semi-estranged had bequeathed to me her holiday house in Switzerland, specifically the Canton of Bern. My problem is I currently cant afford to travel there to sort things out Im on a contract job in Australia and only have a small buffer of savings in the bank, and Im literally at a loss to know what my next steps should be. I cant really ask my family for advice as theyre not financially literate.Ideally I would like to rent it out, as it is in the Alps and it looks like holiday lettings there can provide a lucrative long-term income stream which I could really do with right now. However, it does seem like it would be a bit of a hassle - I wouldnt be able to afford to engage a property manager right now due to lack of cash, and Im guessing there would be lots of bureaucracytax implications from being a non-resident landlord in another country?The alternative would be to sell it. A quick Google suggests the chalet is worth about 800,000, which would obviously be life-changing for me - even after paying whatever costs would be involved - as Im originally from a low-income background. What should I actually do in this case? Do I just call a random estate agent in Bern and ask them to put it on the market? Or given how lucrative the sale will be should I engage a professional to help me out and pay them on commission?What would you do in this situation?Edit: Just to clarify I am 100 sure this is not a scam, and it has already gone through probate  <response>: Im a landlord, but I dont think this kind of query is going to be within the realm of experience of most folks here.As others have mentioned, figure out what a chalet costs for upkeep I couldnt begin to speculate and can rent for and determine whether you want to sell it, cashflow it, or gaze down upon the peasantry from your perch.
