If the beneficiaries of an estate want to remove the executor, they will first need a very good reason for doing so. In most jurisdictions, it will require a court action. It is best to retain a lawyer to do this.

If the power to sell real estate was granted in the will then the executor has the power to sell it. However, if ALL the beneficiaries agree that the property should be retained they should insist the property not be sold. Remember that the beneficiaries own the real estate. If the executor proceeds to try to sell the property the beneficiaries should petition the court to review the matter ASAP.
