Is there a time limit after a person dies that the executor must execute the will?

Estate Planning lawyer at Burdette & Rice, PLLC
There's usually not a good reason for delay. In Texas, a Will can be admitted to probate within 4 years. Even after that, under the right circumstances, a Will could still be admitted to probate. Fortunately, Texas law provides for exactly your situation. I strongly encourage you to visit with a probate attorney near you to learn about an interested person's rights to demand production of the Will.

You should talk to the lien holder and see what it will take to pay off interest and penalties. You should then get a release of the lien.

If the payments don't get made, the lender will foreclose. There are many questions embedded in this one; you probably should start to administer your father's estate; however, there may only be liability, and no benefit to doing it. If there's a house, then potentially there's a lot of money on the table.
