It is the personal representative's job to properly distribute the decedent's estate to the rightful heirs or devisees named in a will. A decedent's estate may contain personal property, such as bank accounts, stocks, and household effects, and/or real property. In general, real property is land or anything built or growing on it, including houses, farms, ranches, leases, gas, mineral, water, and timber rights.
