2-7-402. Title to decedent's property; subject to administration and payment of debts; priorities.

Except as otherwise provided in this code, when a person dies the title to his property, real and personal, passes to the person to whom it is devised by his last will, or in the absence of such disposition to the persons who succeed to his estate as provided in this code. However all of his property is subject to the possession of the personal representative and to the control of the court for the purposes of administration, sale or other disposition under the provisions of law, and his property, except homestead and other exempt property, is chargeable with the payment of debts and charges against his estate. There is no priority between real and personal property, except as provided in this code or by the will of the decedent.
