Before any bank would lend someone the money to buy the property you would have to obtain a Judgment of Possession, if you don't already have one. Since her estate is simple and small it should be possible to find a lawyer to handle the matter inexpensively.
If this has already been done, any lawyer could draft a limited power of attorney in which your nephews could sign over to you the right to sell that land. I would ask my bank if they have access to such a document since they finance real estate loans everyday. If not, any of the lawyers they use for property closings would have one.
