    I agree with this. Its a very tricky one and we are only speculating on a dynamic we know nothing about.

    And what makes it even more awkward is the law is kind no help here, you are now in the "family agreement" realm rather than administering your deceased fathers estate OP. Your best bet is to try to convince the 2 living there to sell, and even if they wish to continue living together to buy another house between them (they'd have 40% of the value of their current house together, and if they bought a smaller house it might be a small enough mortgage for example). That to me is your rolls royce solution and everybody is happy - only you know if that is a runner because we don't know your dynamic.

    You should see a solicitor for sure OP, a proper probate specialist would be bet placed to help you here I think. But again, most of what you need is family agreement. If the 3 non-residents want to sell, how do those living there feel and would they be happy to? That's the question. If they agree, simple. If they don't, hard to know where to next.

    I have nothing more to add that can help and I don't envy you but wish you all the best with it.

    UPDATE on this Question,

    The Probate has finally gone through,and there werent too many hiccups all in all, As in the original will the house could not be sold with out all 4 agreeing , The House will not be sold which is now agreed by all,

    Two of the siblings A and B live in the house, with no children the other two C has 3 children and D has 2 children,

    Now time for Wills to be written, A and B want to give there share to C and D Children but without too many complications what would be the best simple way to get this sorted thanks in advance ?
