Can a person be an executor to the estate he owes money to?

Yes. Nothing prohibits a testator from choosing a person as his or her executor simply because there is a debt between them. In the matter of who is to be the executor, courts go to great lengths to honor the wishes of the deceased. The beneficiaries will be able to challenge in court the manner in which the executor handled repayment. An executor might be held to a higher standard of proof if he or she disputes the claim in full or in part than any other creditor might be held to. In other words, although it appears that there is a conflict of interest in the executor handling his/her own claim, there are remedies available to beneficiaries to ensure proper handling of that claim that do not thwart the decedent's personal choice of the person to be the executor.

Can executor pay her daughter to paint the house to ready it for sale?

Usually, yes, however, the executor is running a risk. An executor is not prohibited from hiring a relative merely because she is a relative. However; the executor may not pay that her more than the job is worth. No sweetheart deals, even if the daughter is a sweetheart. But that type of transaction is subject to challenge since it is inherently a conflict of interest for an executor to hire relatives to do things. The beneficiaries have the right to contest the amount paid if that amount is unreasonable or if the job done is substandard. If the executor overpays or gets a sustandard job, he risks having to reimburse the estate for the difference between what he would have paid to a professional and what he paid to his daughter.
