My father's will literally says that anything he has is to be distributed between his 2 children in equal shares.
I am executor. There is property and unknown bank accounts at this moment.
Do I just sell everything and divide it up minus expenses?
Feels a bit too simple

Yes , assuming that the estate is below the IHT threshold.
Otherwise you are going to fill out IHT400
The online probate system is a good place to start
