Real estate received by an executor or administrator in payment of any bad or doubtful claim, on a compromise of such claim made under an order of the probate court, may be distributed by the court having jurisdiction of the estate, by sale or division, upon the same proceedings as are had for the sale or division of real estate of decedents; but such real estate, or the proceeds thereof, if sold, must otherwise be treated and distributed as personal property.
