Joint Mortgage problems

Why not sort the problems out with your brother. Life is too short to be having grief like this with a family member. Did you sleep with his GF or something :p

Most sensible advice in this thread, if you ask me.

Patching things up with your brother is going to be the cheapest and best option in the long run.
 
Any other siblings / parents that can mediate this whole situation. Court orders against an immediate family member is not something that you'll kiss and make up over easily.
 
I got my parents involved but there is really not much they can do. It would be a shame really if I was forced to sell the house and make a loss after all the expenses as they gave us 10k towards the deposit.

Also once and if I move out/sell my half then there is very little chance of me having any contact with my brother ever again and I've done a lot of things and been close to him for the last 20 years.

Well, that's life I suppose, I might consider him buying me out if I can get a reasonable deal.
 
"Notice of Severance" suggest he's already lawyered up, you'd be wise to do the same once you have a market value from a few different agents. If there's little chance of seeing him again I'd hold on for every last penny of 50/50 including something for your expenses. It's only fair, I certainly wouldn't be bullied into it. Don't suppose you could raise the other 50% for a counter offer?
 
if you haven't slept with his GF I strongly suggest you do it now, I was going to say sleep with him mum too for good measure but I don't think that one will work out considering you are brothers !!!
