I get that part about debts but we have an estate acct for this purpose where once house is sold it goes into that acct. she had only 2 cc's and hospital bill. everything else was paid for. Money from sale would sit in her estate til settled. We sold her vehicles since paid for and put in estate acct. we are not keeping any money til cc's and one hospital bill/dr bill is paid and cleared.and attorney gets their fee. So anyways I am stumped why

my question is about settling an estate. My mom just passed recently and her home is totally paid for so no loan. Well we have someone who wants to buy it but the lawyer says we cant sell it for 2 more months. I dont get why if its free and clear and it is the last thing to settle everything. Does anyone know why? And this is in ohio
