What I can do in order to get her to give me the deed so I can get insurance and proceed with my life?

Answered by attorney Edward L. Armstrong (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Edward L. Armstrong, P.C.
If an estate was opened in the probate court (your sister may have done this if she was advised to by an attorney), the personal representative normally waits at least six months before distributing assets. If, as you say, there is no probate but the estate is very large, the personal representative may wait for the IRS to approve the Federal Estate Tax Return. If there is tax due (this is doubtful given the generous exemptions available), the personal representative is personally liable for the taxes so she would wait for approval of the IRS before distribution.

If the person who signed the documents is still living the POA is effective. If the person who signed the documents is deceased, the will is the controlling document. If the persons are 2 different people, the living or deceased status controls who is in charge.

Can my siblings force me to sell the house our parents left us that is under my name?

If your name is on the deed no one can force you to sell. If all names, you can buy their share from them at fair market value but if you cannot afford to pay them you may be forced to sell and give them their share.
