Yes. The appointment is made by the court. If the other heirs object to the appointment they must file an objection with the court in a timely manner and then explain the reason for their objection to the judge. The judge will consider the testimony and either appoint the person who requested appointment or another qualified person.

To become the administrator of an estate without a will, one must petition the court for appointment as the administrator. The court will typically appoint a close family member, such as a spouse or adult child, to serve as the administrator. The administrator will then be responsible for managing and distributing the assets of the estate according to state laws.
To become the executor of an estate without a will, a person can petition the court to be appointed as the administrator. The court will typically appoint a close family member or other interested party to handle the estate's affairs. The administrator will then follow the state's laws on intestate succession to distribute the assets of the estate.
You would not be an executor. You would be an administrator. You file an application with the probate court in your jurisdiction to be appointed the administrator of the estate.
To me it sounds unlikely that a bank would give a new mortgage to an estate. How would the bank get its interest paid by a dead person? Did the administrator lie when he/she asked for the mortgage?

Yes, they certainly can.
I assume you mean how do they acquire title to the real estate in their own name.In order for legal title to real estate to pass to the heirs the estate must be probated. Generally, once the administrator or personal representative has been appointed by the court there are two ways to transfer title to the real estate legally. First, the administrator can request a license to sell the real estate by stating the amount of the offer and to whom it will be sold. If the heirs consent, the license will be granted without delay. On the other hand, the administrator can wait until the estate has been settled and closed then purchase the real estate from the heirs at law.I assume you mean how do they acquire title to the real estate in their own name.In order for legal title to real estate to pass to the heirs the estate must be probated.

An executor handles the estate of a decedent who died with a will. An administrator handles the estate of a decedent who die without a will. The terms are different because an executor is executing the decedent's directions as stated in the will. The administrator is simply handling the estate according to general laws.
