Any asset which has his signature on it. The house, the car, any large item that he purchased (with or without you) is part of his estate. State probate laws determine what is exempt and what is not when it pertains to any estate. If the married couple lived in a community property state all property acquired during the marriage is equally owned regardless of title wording. If the married couple did not reside in a CP state probate laws take precedence with the default laws applying if the person died intestate.

Can the executor of a Trust charge rent to a beneficiary of the Trust if that person has moved into the house of the deceased?
The question is a little sketchy but, yes, they probably can. The Executor has a FIDUCIARY RESPONSIBILITY to not let the estate "go to waste" (devalue or be wrongly used) until such time as the will is probated and all the property is distributed according to the stated wishes of the deceased. If you are living in the home of the deceased, and under normal circumstances, would not have done so during the deceased's lifetime - even if you ultimately wind up inheriting the home, you will have to compensate the estate for your living privileges.
