Does he have to split the estate equally between the heirs or can he keep and do what he wants with property?

And how does one become the executor when there is not a will and why don't the other heirs get notified of all procedings?

Without a will, the estate is divided according to state laws. Taxes and fees are charged. Under no circumstances can the executor just do as he pleases. He may be paid a fee for his services, but he has to abide be state (maybe even county) law governing the division of assets. That is why when there is no will, the executor is often an attorney familiar with what the laws are.
