Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge, the house can only be sold with mutual consent of all the concerned and identified children. In this case,the children of the three wives and the identified child. There might be litigation if handled otherwise. In short,where there is no will,mutual agreement is necessary.

Ok thanks for your response. But do you think the kids have the right to throw out their step-siblings from the home?

@ poster, Topsy1971 is correct. Although, I have been involved in transaction like this and the lawyers on the other side relied on customary law to transfer interest in the land of a deceased (the Supreme Court has in plethora of authorities held that you cannot do so without a will or letter of administration but some lawyers still look for loopholes to support their activities in this area). I will therefore advise that the siblings resident in the property should be vigilant. If the effort to sell persist, they should approach the court.
