2-7-401. Personal representative entitled to possession of all property; duty to repair; actions by heirs for possession or to quiet title.
The personal representative is entitled to possession of all real and personal estate of the decedent, and to receive the rents and profits of the real estate until the estate is settled or until delivery by order of the court to the heirs or beneficiaries. He shall keep in good repair all houses, buildings and fixtures under his control. The heirs or beneficiaries may themselves or jointly with the personal representative maintain an action for possession of the real estate or for quieting title to the same, against anyone except the personal representative, but this section shall not be so construed as requiring them to do so.
