Re: executor commission
5% of the first $100,000 ($5,000); plus
4% on the next $200,000 ($8,000); plus
3% on the balance up to $1,000,000.
Remember, executor's commissions are taxable income, but inheritance is not, so you may wish to waive your commission, depending on your circumstances.
Feel free to email or call my office for a brief consultation.
