Hypothetical.. A friend owns a piece of property where she lives on it which has 3 areas for motorhomes where on one her mother and father live, another her sister, and another a friend.. She doesn't have a will or trust and was in a car accident and they are expecting her to pass away this evening.. Very sad..
The property everyone knows will go into probate and I believe will then be given to the closest relative, the parents.. BUt what happens while the land is in probate.. Are they going to throw the families off the land or will they still be allowed to live there?

the Court will appoint a Personal Representative to administer her estate.
In Florida, this person must be a Florida resident.
If he's willing, her father will likely be appointed.
He'll be in charge of discovering the Florida law concerning dying intestate [without a Will] and applying it.
I haven't checked, and I believe Florida law will divide the estate among her closest relatives, with children receiving preference over all others.

They should be allowed to remain until a decision has been made about the future of the land.
