That would be the way to go, OR you can buy it from the estate BEFORE the estate is settled, and then just split it, and get half your money back. This is what we did with my grandfathers car, and my brother wanted it. You can also buy it for less that appraised value because, if YOU TWO are the executors, you can lower the price. Your lawyer MAY be giving you the shaft, because sometimes they get paid on a percentage of the eastaes WORTH. DO you KNOW the lawyer??? TELL the lawyer this is what you want to happen, and if he gives you any crap, tell him you're the executors and thats what you want do, or you will go somewhere else.
