I’m being willed my aunts property but..

Location included: Questions/Need Advice

So I’m a beneficiary of one of my aunts houses and my other aunt, her sister is the executor. The willed items are as follows

Business- willed to executor Property 1- willed to the executor Property 2- willed to me And all three items to be willed are in different states.

My intentions were to sell the property that was willed to me. 6 months ago the executor asked what I wanted to do with it (sell it, live in it or rent it out) I told her that I would have to sell it. So for rhe past 6 months I’ve been gathering a plan to sell this willed property that is out of state and as is.

Recently when I asked for an update on what’s happening the executor said she sold her willed house and is planning to transfer the business to one of the employees by end of year. She also said that I won’t receive the property but instead be given a percentage of the estate after everything in the estate is complete. Umm.. what? The house is willed to me. I should be able to do as I please with said property once transferred to me. She said “taxes, fees, insurances and Uncle Sam need to be paid before I get paid”. I understand all that to an extent. I planed on property taxes, property insurance, property gains taxes as well as closing cost and selling fees. But not be responsible for business fees (that I didn’t inherent) and the only money Uncle Sam gets from my property is capital gains.

I understand that if there were debts and other things that needed to be paid for that I wouldn’t get the property but my question is, if those fees and costs are so
