You haven't provided enough details.

  • Have the heirs requested that the executor sell.
  • Was the executor instructed to sell in the will.
  • Was a license to sell issued by the probate court.
  • Is the estate settled.

If the executor was ordered to sell and hasn't made arrangements to market the property then you should complain to the probate court to compel them to carry out their duty or ask they be replaced. If the probate process is completed and the executor was under no obligation to sell the property, title has vested in the heirs and they can sell the property.

When someone died how do you know if he left anything in the will for you?

Typically, the executor of the deceased person's estate will inform beneficiaries mentioned in the will. If you suspect that you may be mentioned in a will but have not been notified, you can inquire with the executor or contact the estate lawyer handling the matter. Additionally, wills are usually filed with the probate court, so you could check there to see if a will exists and if you are named as a beneficiary.

How can executor of an estate buy out other family members on real estate?

First, the estate must be probated and the executor must be appointed by the court. Then there are different ways the executor can purchase the real estate. They could petition the court for a license to sell the real estate with the executor as the purchaser after a fair market offer has been accepted by the beneficiaries. The executor would need to obtain the assents of all the other beneficiaries to the petition. The court would likely allow such a transfer. Another method would be for the executor could wait until the probate procedure has been completed and then purchase the property from the beneficiaries who inherited it and are now the legal title holders. Either way, the executor should consult with the attorney who is handling the estate to make certain the transfer is done properly and title is passed legally.
