What is the name of your state? Michigan
Hi, Our father passed away in June. Last surviving parent. My older sister is executor. She was recovering from breast cancer and doing well except moving very slow in handling the estate. Early December we are advised the cancer came back and she's stage 4. My younger sister and I have made numerous offers to help her with the estate but all our offers are turned down, which includes preparing for the sale of dad's house of which each of us are 1/3 entitled in will. My question is, what happens if she passes before the house is listed or if it is listed but not sold? Younger sister and I both live out of state and probably neither one of us can assume the role as executor? Will the court named executor do all the real estate dealings i.e set the price, select the Real Estate agent? What if the house is on the market and hasn't sold? Do we, the remaining siblings have any say in what offer is accepted? Will sister's husband receive her portion of the proceeds? Thanks in advance.
