Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio

Hello!

My father passed away this yr and his property was transferred on death to us three girls. How can the executrix sign a listing agreement with a realtor without the other two signing? How much authority does an executrix have over the other interested parties? Thank you for your time!
