Your post is not clear at all, but if the question is whether a verbal agreement to purchase a house has any legal validity, the answer is no.

Your posts is unclear as you ran several sentences together but it is impossible to have a verbal agreement as to buying or selling land, so there is no agreement. As for your other questions, see an estate/probate lawyer to determine what you can or should do (as a granddaughter you may have no interest at all in the estate).
