This question has so many mixed and conflicting terms, that it is difficult to even understand the question, much less provide an answer. This answer will assume the probable situation that creates this question. I assume that the "property" that has been "willed" to 3 people is part of a living trust created by the decedent during his lifetime. If the decedent transferred this property to a living trust, the executor has no power at all to sell it. This is because the executor has power over property belonging to the decedent. This property is owned by the living trust, therefore, beyond the authority of the executor. Once the decedent transferred the property to the trust, the trust became the legal owner just as if the decedent had transferred the property to another person. Since the decedent no longer owns the property, he has no more power to "will" that property to anyone than I have to will your property to someone. Unless the trust provides that upon his death the property goes into his own estate the executor is powerless to sell to anyone. But this would be extremely unlikely, because the purpose of the living trust is to keep that property out of the decedent's estate.

What happens to the car when someone passes away?

that depends on whether it is paid off or still has a loan/lean on it. if it is paid off, it must be willed to somebody, or it can be purchased from the estate. if it has a loan on it it can either be givin back to the lender, or the loan can be taken over by the executor of estate. if it is to be bought form the estate it must be sold by the executor of estate. if it is willed to a person and it is paid off you simply have to do the paperwork to make it legally yours. in any case, the best person to discuss this with is the executor of estate, or the deceased's lawyer. they can handle or guide you to your options. just an fyi, the executor is essentially somebody who has power of attorney. they are typically the widow, or somebody appointed in the will.


Can the executor sell a house that is in probate and willed to three people other than themselves even if three people do not want it sold?

Yes. The executioner has sole power to dispose of the assets of the estate in the manner that is described in the will. If there is no such manner and the home is put up for sale, offers from those that own a portion of the proceeds can stop the sale by essentially "buying out" those who want the sale. Otherwise, the asset can be sold and the proceeds distributed in accordance with the split deescribed in the will.
