Answer
You can force the sale of the property through a partition lawsuit. In a partition, if the judge cannot divide the property equally, they will order the property be sold and the money from the sale to be split evenly. If you paid for taxes, insurance, maintenance, upkeep, etc., you can ask for more money from the sale. You can also request an equitable accounting of all expenditures and contribution from your brother. Schedule a free consultation to ensure the best results.
