<H4>RCW 11.56.010 appears to require that real estate within a probate can
only be sold by court order. The common practice is for non intervention
PRs to sell without advance approval. Is there a specific section that
authorizes that in NI probates? Do all real estate sales require a formal
appraisal? Unless a court says not required?<o:p></o:p></H4>
