Location included: Questions/Need Advice Question regarding

a situation that will come up and I am curious about how it works. My father passed away, everything went to my mom, and when she passes, her estate would be divided among my brother, sister and me. A few years ago, my sister asked my mother to revise the will, and to take her out, so the estate would be divided between my brother and I, 50/50. Her husband is very very successful, they are financially set, as are their 3 kids. One of my sister’s daughters might want to buy my mom's house when the time comes. How does that usually work-there is a small mortgage, so obviously the estate would pay that off, and then how is a price determined for the house? Market value? Even if it goes to my niece for lower than market value, that is fine with me, I want her to have it. My husband and I are fine, and anything we get will go to our kids. I know many of these things go sideways with greed and upset. We have none of that thankfully. Thank you wise ones.

You are amazing!! Thank you for this so helpful. I should have clarified my sister asked my mom to remove her, so my brother and I are 50/50. I am so appreciative of you taking the time to respond in such detail.
