My name and two other names are on a 80 acre property deed
at the local courthouse. I'm the only one that has paid the
yearly property tax's for the last five years. What can I do
when the other two dont want to divide the property up equally. The note at the bank is about to be paid off. The
other two has put up gates etc.on their so called half and I'm stuck paying the taxs. What can I do to get my part of the property in my name. any help would be appreciated.

You need the assistance of a real estate attorney in your area. You will likely be involved in a partition action, in which the judge will divy up the property.

The first thing that I would do is make an appointment to see a lawyer in the county in which the property is located.
