Can credit card companies force heirs to sell real estate after a death?

If the credit card company has filed a claim against the estate the debt must be paid before any assets can be distributed to the heirs. In any estate the debts must be paid first. The heirs get any assets that are left after the payment of debts. If the estate doesn't pay the bill the creditor can force the sale of the real estate to collect the debt. If the property is the only asset and the heirs want to keep it then the heirs must pay the credit card bill.
