If your parents owned the house, why wasn't it divided when their successions were opened? If you are their child, and there was no will or a deed giving it to your sister, then you may have an interest. But you need to take your case to an attorney so you do not do something stupid and agree to be liable for your parents' debts or those of your sister. And, you can always go to the sheriff's sale and bid on the house if it is foreclosed and sold for the debts.
