What if the executor does not want to sell a house in the will?

There is no problem if the debts of the estate have been paid and the executor is the sole heir. However, if there are other heirs who want to sell the property and take their share of the proceeds the executor must buy out the interests of the other heirs. Otherwise, the heirs are entitled to a sale of the property and can file a petition for partition if the executor will not act.
