If there is a problem with the deed to a property usually the buyer/owner of the real estate will have title insurance that will clear up any deed issues. The real estate company or agent can do nothing about fixing a deed except to refer a client to a real estate attorney. Real estate agents are not attorneys (unless they do have a law degree and have passed the bar) and can get in serious trouble for offering legal advice to their principals.

Can your mother sell real estate owned with your now deceased father if your father had one of 4 siblings' names put on the original deed and this sibling doesn't want to sell?

I'm a realtor. All parties on the deed have to agree to sell, otherwise, there can be no passing of papers to the new owner. Once the closing attorney discovers the wording of the deed, he will need all parties present to sign off on the deed. Another option is your mother can buy out the other siblings interest for an agreed price whereby that sibling will give a quit claim deed to all rights to the property, then your mother is free to sell.
