Which of these words does NOT belong with the others?

Executor
Heir
Sale
Will

The correct answer is: Sale

The word "Sale" stands out from the others because it pertains to the process of transferring ownership of property, typically through a financial transaction. In contrast, "Executor," "Heir," and "Will" are all terms directly related to the estate planning and probate process. An executor is an individual designated to carry out the instructions of a will, while an heir is someone who is entitled to inherit property under the terms of a will or by state intestacy laws. The will itself is a legal document outlining how a person's assets should be distributed after their death. Therefore, the connection among the three terms - executor, heir, and will - revolves around the management and distribution of an individual's estate, making "Sale" the outlier in this grouping.
