Get an NRN Card from one of the Nepal Consulates in the US; and when you are in Nepal next time, get an NRN Citizenship card from Local District Administration Office - That will allow you to inherit and maintain property in Nepal. Now, selling the properties and transferring the money to the US is another question - you will be liable for capital gain taxes of unto 40% if you try to bring the money through legal channels! Inheriting the properties and maintaining it (up to a certain legal limit) in Nepal is allowed under the NRN Citizenship act. Hope this helps.
