The very last up-dated Will is the one that applies. People can change their minds all the time when it comes to Wills. Sometimes something happens between themselves and their children and they may leave one or more children out of their Will. You have no recourse, but go by the last Will unless you can prove the deceased was not of sound mind when signing the latest Will. I would advise you to seek legal council on this so you are sure of your rights. Good luck Marcy

If property is left to a beneficiary in fee simple, the executor generally cannot sell it without the beneficiary's consent. A fee simple interest means the beneficiary has full ownership rights, including the right to occupy or sell the property. The executor's role is to manage the estate and distribute assets according to the will, but they do not have the authority to sell property that has already been transferred in fee simple to a beneficiary. However, if the will allows for it or if the estate needs to settle debts, the executor may seek court approval to sell the property.
