Yes. The "other co-executor" has no reason nor right to withhold the check from being included in the estate unless it was payable upon death to another individual who is named on the check.

Should sibling who is executor and is inheriting estate residual be able to get executor fees from other sibling who is inheriting most of estate in real estate?
Yes. There is a lot of work and responsibility involved in being the executor of an estate. The one sibling/beneficiary who is appointed should not be reqired to work for the other beneficiary for free. In some cases the executor may not charge the statutory fee, however, they should not be expected to work for free. The executor fee should be paid from the estate. If one of two sibling is inheriting real estate then they should make a cash contribution equal to one-half of the executor's fee.

Why it is beneficial to appoint the bank as an executor?
There are benefits and detriments to everything, and appointing a bank as an executor is no different. Appointing a bank is only beneficial if it is a substantially large estate. In fact, most banks will refuse to become the executor, even if named in the will as the executor, if the estate does not consist of certain minimum amounts it fixes. Benefits flow mainly from the financial expertise they have in handling large sums of money and investing them while the estate is being administered so as to obtain the best rate of return. Another benefit is that it takes administration of the estate out of the hands of a single family member where jealousies or other family issues might cause losses, delays and other problems.

Can 1 executor refuse to release cash until other executor agrees to what he wants to do with property?
When there are co-executors of an estate one has no superior rights over the other. If they cannot agree then the conflict needs to be presented to the court for a solution. The beneficiaries have the right to expect that the estate be settled with expediency. An executor who is holding up the process can be removed by a petition filed by the heirs or the other executor.
What should you do if the named executor who is also the main beneficiary is not acting in the best interest of the other heirs?
Either renounce or administer the estate or pay a professional to deal with the matter and the fees would be met from the estate. It is up to the executor to decide. If the exector decides to administer the estate, he or she can be paid a fee (amount varies by state and county). The executor is not a beneficiary and the beneficiary is not the executor. The beneficiaries really have no say as to what the executor should do (i.e., adminster estate, hire attorney to represent estate, or renounce). The executor has a sworn duty to administer the estate in accordance with the deceased's will and the laws of the state and county of probate.

How can executor of an estate buy out other family members on real estate?
First, the estate must be probated and the executor must be appointed by the court. Then there are different ways the executor can purchase the real estate. They could petition the court for a license to sell the real estate with the executor as the purchaser after a fair market offer has been accepted by the beneficiaries. The executor would need to obtain the assents of all the other beneficiaries to the petition. The court would likely allow such a transfer. Another method would be for the executor could wait until the probate procedure has been completed and then purchase the property from the beneficiaries who inherited it and are now the legal title holders. Either way, the executor should consult with the attorney who is handling the estate to make certain the transfer is done properly and title is passed legally.
