Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Connecticut

Shares of estate is being divided into 1/3's, real estate sale was $240,000 but 6% taking off for not using a realtor, so the sale price is $230,000 - the oldest beneficiary bought the house, however under and LLC . In the accounting it said the net profits were $183,000. I asked why so little.. I was unaware of the property having a mortgage, it had a mortgage under an Investment LLC, was never documented as a lien and the same person who bought the house paid themselves back the "unrecorded mortgage" I'm so confused and don't know where to start.. Does this sound fishy?

The existence of the mortgage should have been disclosed in the probate process. I would at least want the probate record to reflect the note and I'd want documentation that the debt is real.
