It sounds like you may be too late. Your only option, and it will take significant legal work, is to reopen the estates for an accounting.

Answered by attorney Douglas A Tull (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Douglas A. Tull, P.C. Attorney at Law
Yes - but title to the house can't be legally transferred (or sold) to anyone without a probate proceeding being commenced - and someone being appointed Personal Representative. The house may have to be sold to pay funeral, administrative and other expenses - leaving cash to be distributed to heirs - which it sounds as if both you and your brother are. So I'd advise you to consult with an attorney to learn more and protect your rights.

Depending on who passed first, it would be either your father's or uncle's to pass to their heirs either by will or intestate. But the estates would need to be probated.
