What is the name of your state? Illinois
I am the only beneficiary to my father's modest estate. The executor is a female friend of my fathers who I despise and don't trust. Dad owned a small house and owed $65,000 on the mortgage. Executor says she got an appraisal on the house of $58,000 and that she is going to buy it. Can she do this without getting more than one appraisal or without putting it on the market for sale to see what it might sell for? Your thoughts would be appreciated.
