Just because grandma put the house in the will doesn't automatically give the beneficiaries the right of ownership. She has every right to sell the house and spend the money. I hope she went on a cruise with part of it.
Whether or not the heirs have any right to the left over funds would depend on the wording in the will. My suggestion to those waiting for grandma's money is to go out and earn your own.
