If the house becomes legally yours by inheritance then you may do with your own property as you please. Keep it or sell it for whatever price you see fit.
Can a son make you sell the house after his father dies and the mother is still alive?
It depends on the laws of the state where the property is located and the specific details of the will. Typically, if the spouse leaves their share of the house to the children, they would have a legal right to sell their portion, but they might need approval or cooperation from the surviving spouse or executor of the estate to complete the sale. It's advisable to consult with a real estate attorney to understand the options and legal requirements in this situation.

It is possible to have a mortgage in a different name than a "deed" to a home. You will not be forced to sell the home if you transfer your fathers name from the deed to yours. You may do this at your local recording office and/or also, you may contact a local title company (they can help you). Also, I would send a letter to the lender holding the mortgage...asking to give you rights to speak on your fathers behalf. Please keep in mind that you father will have to sign off on all of the above.
If the decedent has signed a binding contract to sell the house, then his or her estate must abide by it and sell the house according to the terms of the contract. The executor has no power to simply cancel the contract nor is the contract automatically cancelled by the death of the seller.
