Re: estate

You didn't say what she is going to sell. If it is real estate, then you and your sister will have to be informed of the value and you will get your share at closing (she can't sell the property without your permission).

If it is something other than real estate, you are still entitled to half of the proceeds for whatever it is sold for unless you divide up all of the property prior to selling it.

Good luck to you.
