You haven't explained why you are waiting on your cousin.It is against the law to withhold a Will from being filed in probate. A probate should be filed as soon after the death as possible. If you are an heir at law then you should visit the court and see about filing yourself. The title to the real property cannot pass to the heirs until the estate is probated and you should be concerned that the property is not insured against loss and that the taxes are not being paid. Take that initiative yourself. The property should be sold and the proceeds distributed according to the Will or the laws of intestacy if there is no Will.
