That sentence there says it all......

Your mother specified her estate be split three ways. Why don't you follow her wishes and simply allow the estate to be split - 3 ways.

Doesn't sound like your sister is trying to shaft you in any way - sounds to me like she just wants an early finalisation which possibly is what she and her husband need? My only concern would be that she doesn't take a lowball offer whereas you might all benefit a bit more by making sure the property is sold for a fair price.

Best you rent some storage, move out your stuff and make your own base somewhere else.

Above all, DON'T let this estate wind-up lead to animosity between you and your siblings. We are all a long time dead. Stay friends with them please
