In real estate, the person who acts for and with the authority of another is called an "agent." The agent represents the interests of their client, often referred to as the principal, and is responsible for facilitating transactions, negotiations, and other activities on behalf of that principal. The relationship between the agent and the principal is typically formalized through a written agreement, outlining the agent's duties and responsibilities.

Normally an insured person on a life insurance policy lists another person as his beneficiary. If that person dies first, then when the insured person dies, it goes to his estate. In that case, the term estate does not refer to a piece of land. Estate refers to all of his property: Bank accounts, Insurance policies, unused IRAs, etc. Some of them may be designated and others not. Whatever he owned when he died is his estate as far as the law is concerned.

A power of attorney is a legal document that gives someone the authority to make decisions on behalf of another person while they are alive. An executor of an estate is responsible for managing and distributing a deceased person's assets according to their will. The main difference is that a power of attorney's authority ends upon the person's death, while an executor's responsibilities begin after the person has passed away.
An executor (not executive) is the person who has the authority to administer the decedent's estate. He/She is appointed by a court with probate jurisdiction. He/She is usually appointed in the decedent's Will.
When a person dies the court must appoint a person with authority to settle the estate. The real property can then be transferred by the executor of the Will or the court appointed administrator of the estate if the decedent died intestate (without a Will). Generally, the executor may have granted the authority to sell the property in the Will. Otherwise the executor must obtain a license to sell from the court. If the decedent had no Will then the court must appoint an administrator who must obtain a license to sell the real estate from the court. In some jurisdictions the person appointed by the court is called a personal representative or estate representative.

The administrator has the responsibility and authority to file an inventory of the decedent's estate with the court and has the legal standingto file a motion to compel the guardian to file their final account.
