## Key points

- The siblings disagree over selling their inherited home.
- An independent valuation could clarify their options.
- A written agreement or neutral adviser may help.

## Summary

Two siblings who inherited their parents’ home disagree over whether to sell it: the sister wants to keep it, while her brother needs his share of the proceeds to reduce his mortgage. The dispute risks damaging their relationship as well as deciding the future of a house tied to family memories.

The advice is to obtain an independent valuation and consider buying out the brother’s share, keeping the property together for a set period under a written agreement, or selling. Any plan should account for costs and affordability; a neutral professional may help resolve disagreements, and legal and tax advice is recommended before ownership is transferred or documents are signed.
