Best Answer

You aren't the executor of the estate until the court appoints you. If your husband left property standing in his name alone then his estate must be probated. You should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate who can review your situation and explain your options. If your husband left a will you should bring it with you when you meet with the attorney.

You haven't been specific enough in your details. If the husband died first while the wife was living and property ended up in the wife's estate, and from there went into a trust, then the property may be out of reach of the husband's executor. It depends on how the couple held title, if husband's interest passed to the wife while she was living, if the husband had any creditors, and the laws in your jurisdiction.
