You need to focus on methods and opportunities to resolve your domestic dispute in priority over an examination of your legal rights. You may find that your rights are enforceable only in a court proceeding which may indicate a lawsuit to partition and sell the property is appropriate, I suggest you talk to an attorney in your jurisdiction to explore the particular facts and circumstances of your situation, and seek out a neutral third party (such as a pastor, rabbi or social worker) who can serve to help you arbitrate your differences with the other party.
