What happens if multiple siblings inherited the James Island house?

Multiple siblings inheriting a James Island house need to agree on a path forward together, whether that means one sibling buying out the others' shares, selling the home and splitting the proceeds, or another arrangement, since the personal representative cannot force a sale without agreement or a court order. Disagreement among siblings can slow the process more than probate itself does. Brian Beatty provides one neutral valuation all the siblings can work from so the decision is based on the market, not a guess.
