If the estate is in probate and you are appointed executor, its in your fidicuary responsibility to what's best for the estate.

That being said, I don't see what you have to provide any info. You are acting on behalf of the estate and only the estate info should be necessary.

Well know that actually may change matters. If you made those payments out of personal funds, you may have been deemed to have assumed responsibility for the debt.

If you made those payments they should havbe been made from the estate account.

Talk to the probate atty. I'm not saying you shouldn't have paid, but the payments should have come from an estate checking account. You could have first deposited the money into the estate account, then paid it with the estate checks.

I'm not really sure how it will go from here. I think a foreclosure might have been the better choice intitially.
