Unless you or your sister is on any of the debts, no they can not come after you, Now to do it properly, you should file in probate, sell the house and pay the debts are required ( certain debts are to be paid first depending on your state law) Of course the cost of the attorney if you use one is paid out of the money or sale of property. But you are not required to do anything if you don't want to.
