I need more information to make that determination. Sometimes there are good reasons for a delay.

More information is needed as there are several possibilites. For example, if the house is specifically given to you and your sister and the will has been probated, you both own the property now and you may force a sale through a partition proceeding. However, I suggest that you have the facts of your situation reviewed by an attorney before you make any decisions.
