Re: my brother and i had a verbal agreement

I doubt there is anything you can do. A basic principle of real estate law is that nothing counts except what is put in writing. Verbal agreements don't count.

However, I think you should consult a lawyer about this. Details you have left out of your question could make a big difference.
