Yes, both Mom and Dad had a will and it is specified that the house be sold and the money divided evenly between the 'boys'. My older brother (I am the middle son) is the executor and it his daughter that has expressed an interest in purchasing the property. I would rather see that his daughter purchase this rather than it be sold to a third party... yes, even with the unforeseen difficulties that will certainly arise. Being that we all are totally clueless (at least at this point) about the procedures involved in selling an inherited property, I am just seeking some sort of guidance of those who have gone before me in a similar situation.
