ACCEPTED

I assume you own the house with your wife, i.e., both of you are on the dee. If that is true, then you keep the house and it will not be sold to pay the daughters the $20K each. They only get their $20K if there is enough to pay them their $20K and if not, they won't be receiving it!

All the best,
