Have to sell aunt's derelict house

I am the administrator of my aunt's estate. Her modular home is a mess. It's been vacant for almost 2 years, she had pets that made a mess of the carpeting, water got in the basement and now there's a mold problem and the furnace fuel is kerosene. There are no assets in the estate except this home and whatever is in it, which is just the usual household items along with the paintings she did and the art supplies and books on art and artists. I don't feel I should have to pay out-of-pocket to fix up the home, but no realtor will take it to sell with these "issues". There are so many debts that the value of the home doesn't even come close to paying them off, if I can even sell it. Any ideas what to do?
