The buyout of your interest should be at fair market value, which can be arrived at by negotiation, appraisal or any other method satisfactory to you and your brother.

Re: llc buy out

If you have a buy/sell agreement in place with your brother then that agreement will control the methods by which you may be bought out. Otherwise you will need to negotiate a price or have an appraisal done. Please feel free to contact my office if we may be of any assistance in this matter.
