More details to this question:
Can a heirship property be sold if no one can come to a decision regarding the land? This was land that was my grandfathers, my mother and father paid the property tax for this land for since the passing of my grandfather. Now everyone is wanting to claim this land and house as their own if not they want to sell it. Is this possible? Or do they have to be agreement amongst all the heirs, and are they required to reimburse the property taxes paid first?

Ownership of the property is still in the name of your grandfather based upon the facts you recited. Even though your parent's paid the tax, the property was never theirs. In addition, the property is not owned by you and your siblings or whoever are the heirs of your grandfather. The only way to straighten this out is in Probate Court in the county in which your grandfather died. It will be an heirship proceeding and likely to be complicated based upon your writing.
