When a will is admitted to probate, or a will made out of this state is admitted to

record as provided by sections 2129.05 to 2129.07 of the Revised Code , and interests in real property are given or devised by the will to the executors

named in the will, or nominated pursuant to a power as described in section 2107.65 of the Revised Code , to be sold or conveyed, or the interests in real property thereby are ordered to

be sold by the executors and one or more of the executors dies, refuses to act, or

neglects to take upon self the execution of the will, then all sales and conveyances

of the interests in real property by the executors who took upon themselves in this

state the execution of the will, or the survivor of them, shall be as valid as if

the remaining executors had joined in the sale and conveyance.  But if none of the executors take upon themselves the execution of the will, or

if all the executors who take out letters testamentary die, resign, or are removed

before the sale and conveyance of the interests in real property, or die, resign,

or are removed after the sale and before the conveyance is made, the sale or conveyance,

or both, shall be made by the administrator with the will annexed or, if any, by a

successor executor or successor coexecutor nominated pursuant to a power as described

in section 2107.65 of the Revised Code .
