Do all the heirs have to agree to sell an inherited house in Saskatoon?

Not always. If the will names an executor with authority to sell estate property, that executor can generally list and sell the house without needing every beneficiary's individual sign-off, though they still owe all beneficiaries a duty to get a fair price and account for the proceeds honestly, after legal fees that typically run $800 to $1,500.

Where there is no will, the Court of King's Bench appoints an administrator to handle the estate, and that administrator carries a similar duty to act in every heir's interest even without unanimous agreement on each decision along the way.

Disagreement becomes a real problem when heirs disagree not about the executor's authority but about whether to sell at all, particularly where one heir wants to keep the property. That kind of dispute can end up before the Court of King's Bench if it cannot be resolved among the family directly.

A neutral, defensible number tends to defuse more of these disputes than a legal argument does. Joel Dyck's hand-reviewed valuation gives every heir the same documented figure to work from, accounting for improvements the City of Saskatoon's records do not capture.
