No, not unless there is a POA or court order allowing him to do so. The executor has been appointed by the court and has letters of authorization for the handling of the estate's assets. In most cases, the executor will have to obtain court approval for sale of real property. To do so they will have to show the evaluation of the property and the sale price and show that it is a good deal for the estate. Once they have the court order, they are authorized to sign the appropriate transaction documents.
