The administrator or executor shall make a just and true inventory of all the personal property owned and possessed by the decedent at his death and all real property belonging to the decedent located in the county in which administration may be had and shall produce and exhibit the same, if possible, to the appraisers appointed pursuant to Code Sections 53-7-70 and 53-7-71.

The administrator or executor shall also return, under oath, with the appraisement, so far as may come to his knowledge, all real property lying outside the county in which administration may be had.
