Yes depends on a lot of factors, where is it, is it in an area that is likely to be stable or grow long term? Where are you in the country relative to the house and are you experienced/knowledgeable about property and able to manage it yourself including any maintenance required or would you be needing an agent to do that? What is your financial situation, are you a higher rate or lower rate taxpayer and what would your plans be for the capital if it was sold - investment or are you in immediate need of the cash? Do you own your own home or do you rent yourself at the moment? Have you any other investments? Is the house a desirable rental property, in good nick and easy to maintain etc or would it need lots of work (tricky to get done asap) or attract the wrong kind of tenants? Sorry for all qs, you don't have to answer, just factors in how I would make the decision if it was me.
My immediate instinct would be to at least try and sell once you have probate, if the market really has tanked or it won't sell for what you consider it to be worth you could reconsider. But then I really dislike letting out properties/BTL as an investment personally, I consider it a hassle/stress, it's nowhere near as tax efficient as it used to be, the cash is extremely illiquid (i.e. if/when you want to access the capital you have to wait months to sell the property and pay lots of fees compared to selling shares or cashing in an ISA where you'd have the money within days for example), plus you lose quite a proportion of your income every month to things like agents fees, maintenance, void periods, tenants suddenly paying no rent or doing a midnight flit etc etc. It can still be a good investment if you pick your property wisely, e.g. in areas that experience high price growth and if you keep the property for years, or if you have the skills/capital to add value to the property - a friend of mine has made a mint buying up wrecks in cheap or studenty areas and converting them to HMOs, but he is a builder and has lots of trade contacts so he can get the work done very cheaply.
Also, this may not be relevant, apologies if so, but I have a few friends who have inherited their childhood home/much loved parents home/house that has been in their family for generations and have rented it out as they weren't ready to fully let it go, it's always ended really badly, as even good tenants are unlikely to care for the house and garden like its their own, and seeing other people in the house, changes to the outside etc has proved far more upsetting in the long run than selling it - just a thought. Sorry if I've overstepped the line!
