That depends. Is the home part of your parents' estate, or is your sister now the owner by virtue of being on the deed with your parents as a joint tenant? If the property is part of the estate, you can petition the court to appoint you as administrator, then have the property sold and divide the proceeds between all heirs with court approval.
