§531-28.5  Petition to sell real property. 
If required by the decedent's will or if demanded by a devisee in a testate
probate proceeding or by an heir in an intestate probate proceeding, the
personal representative or guardian shall present to the court having
jurisdiction of the estate a petition setting forth the condition of the
estate, and the facts and circumstances tending to show the necessity or
expediency of the sale of real property.  If it appears to the court either
that it is necessary or that it would be advisable and for the benefit of the
estate that the real property or any part thereof be sold, and that sufficient
notice of the proposed sale has been given to interested persons as defined in
section 560:1-201, the court may authorize the personal representative or
guardian to sell the real property either at private sale or at public auction
on such terms as the court shall order. [L 1980, c 260, §2; am L 1996, c 288,
