More details to this question:
My mothers Homeowners policy for her mobile home list me as the Additional Insured as she requested. There is no land involved only the home which was left to me. There was water damage from the pipes in the shower causing a lot of damage that needed repairs. She did not want to live through a construction zone due to age related health reasons so I filed the claim after she passed. The Ins. Co. Paid the claim but made the check for repairs out to the Estate Of which my mother has no estate. If I am the one doing all the repairs and on the policy as an Additional Insured, and owner, why can the check not be maid out to me so I don't have to pay an attorney to set up an Estate for this one check?

Likely because you are an inusred as to liability. You have no ownership interest in the property until its titled in your name.
