Arkansas estate rules and taxes

Who can sign

The personal representative is the person the probate court appoints to handle the estate. They may sell estate real property before the estate closes when the will grants power of sale; without that authority, they generally must ask the probate court for an order authorizing the sale. The Arkansas law on sales of estate property is in Title 28, Chapter 49. The Arkansas Code and Constitution are available from the Arkansas General Assembly.
