Once you have been appointed executor by the court you can sell the property under certain circumstances. Assuming the real estate was not specifically devised in the will, generally, if you were given authority to sell the real estate in the will you may sell without license of the court. If the authority was not granted in the will then you will need to apply for a license to sell the real estate.

First, the executor must be appointed by the court. The executor must dispose of the estate assets according to the provisions in the Will. It is common for the power to sell real estate to be granted in the Will. If not, then generally, the executor must obtain a license from the court.

They derive their authority by their court appointment and under state laws that vary from state to state.
