means the executor fills out the legally required documents that reveal known facts about the property, such as defects, repairs, or conditions, to the buyer, although probate sales often allow limited disclosures since the executor didn’t live in the home.
“Apply exemptions if allowed” means the executor checks whether the estate qualifies for legal protections, such as homestead, personal-property, or family exemptions, and then claims them so certain assets are shielded from creditors or excluded from probate calculations.
