1. Upon the entry of an order authorizing a public sale of real estate pursuant to

application by any fiduciary subject to the jurisdiction thereof, the Court shall also

fix the return day therefor. Such sale shall be advertised in such manner, in such

newspapers or other media, and for such length of time as shall be required by law

and deemed necessary and proper reasonably and practically to obtain the best

price possible under all the circumstances, but in any event public notice of such

sale shall be advertised at least once a week for three successive weeks in the

Bucks County Law Reporter and in one other newspaper of general circulation in

the county prior to the sale, and shall be conspicuously posted on the subject real

estate. Notice thereof shall also be given to all parties in interest at least 20 days

before the sale by personal service or by certified mail to their last known address,

unless the same shall have been waived in writing or the Court, for cause shown,

shall dispense therewith.

2. On or before the return day, a sworn written return of said sale shall be filed

with the clerk setting forth the relevant facts concerning the sale and attaching a

copy of the agreement resulting therefrom and due proofs of publication and

service of other required notices.

3. On the return day, the return so made shall be deemed to be confirmed nisi.

Unless exceptions be filed thereto within 10 days thereafter, the Court, upon

application at the expiration of such period, shall enter a decree confirming the sale

absolutely and making such other order, including the entry or waiver of additional

security, as may be necessary for the proper execution of the sale. See Bucks Rule

12.9E and comply with Bucks Rule 12.10C.
