I dont understand why it takes 15 people to sell a damn house. its up to your sister and the realtor

Yup! My mother went through this shite with her siblings when her mother passed away. There were so many differing opinions on what should happen since my grandmother didn't have a will.

Ultimately, my mother, acting as the executor of the estate, listed it with a realtor and the house sold for a damn good price for the town. They split the proceeds from the sale and that was that--despite others' ideas.

Oh, and yea, it tore the family apart. My mother doesn't talk to half of her siblings now. So . . . . good luck?
