You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

You have the right to do whatever you like with your half although the transferability is limited based on it only being a half interest in the property. Certainly, you can donate that interest to a charity if you like.

I have no idea what you mean by the financial reimbursement your brother is demanding. Perhaps it is for expenses to maintain the property during the pendency of the probate. You need to discuss it with him to get more information.
