Does the Will say the house specifically goes to the siblings or is the house to be sold and the siblings get the money?

Thanks that is what I needed to know.
Then the siblings don't have to agree.
The executor decides what the property sells for and when to sell it. The siblings can be consulted with of course but in the end this is the responsibility of the executor and up to the executor alone.
