Assuming that you are saying that the property passed to you by intestate laws, yes.
Yes if you are a tenant in common with your mom. Find a lawyer and broker and go for it, but don't assume that the price you've pegged is reasonable! The only problem with tenants in common is that people don't want to get stuck in the back seat with no control. This is something you'll have to approach your mom on, and frankly if you would inherit more from her when she passes, or are on good terms with the rest of the family that may inherit from her, time to sit down and discuss your desire to sell -- maybe even they'll buy you out -- they have the greater interest in retaining control and not having strangers involved with them! Good luck.
