No. Technically, the deed does not have to be changed, because a will is an instrument of transfer. Just as a deed transfers property from a living person, a will transfers property from a deceased person. In many cases, estate deeds are made but that is only to confirm the transfer in the deed records. As long as your living in te house has been open to the other co-owners, there is no problem.

* Generally there are only one or two Executors to a Will. Executor (male) or Executrix (female.) It is odd there should be five Executors.

The group of siblings should get together and decide who will be handling the Will as Executor or Executrix. If one is chosen then they should get a fee for their trouble which is anywhere from one to four percent of the entire Estate (property, monies, etc.) and that will be up to the other siblings unless otherwise stipulated in the Will.
