Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
real estate
almost a year ago i purchased a
house with my brother in a REI
partnership, i supplied the capitol,
and he does the leg work. both our
names are on the deed... We also
have it spelled out so that, when
the house is sold, i get my original
capitol back and we split the profits
50-50. Well as of a 1 week ago i
visited him and we began fighting.
The plan was to sell the home, but
now he is not planning ever selling
it. In part because he didnt put a
penny into it, and doesnt care if he
gets anything out of it.. But hes
able to stone wall me and keep my
money tied up till he or i die,
theoretically. Is there anything i can
do to get my money back? I have
every piece of paper signed and
every email ever written back and
forth.

Yes. it is an action in partition, to compel a sale,
Re: real estate
Your options may vary depedning on your agreements with your brother. However, at a minimum you should be able to force a sale by filing for a partition, assuming that Florida law allows for a partition lawsuit. Good luck.
