Does the heir have the right of preemption if a portion of the deceased's house is sold to settle their debts?

Primary text

If the deceased owned a house and a portion of it was sold for the purpose of settling their debt, the heirs are not entitled to preemption. This is because the sale effectively occurs on behalf of the heirs themselves, and they cannot claim preemption against their own acquisition.
