Q. What is an Administrator of an estate?
A. An Administrator is a person or entity appointed by the court to administer an estate when no will exists. When a person passes away without a will, the court will have to appoint a person to be in charge of dealing with the person's assets, such as a house. When a house needs to be sold and there is no will, the property has to be sold through the probate process.
Q. What is an Executor of an estate?
A. A person named in a Will and appointed by the Court to carry out the decedent's wishes. This person is usually named as the seller of the real property.
