Generally, if you are on the deed as an owner, then you would generally be entitled to your half interest in the house. There are some exceptions to this, so consult with an attorney to discuss the specifics of your situation and your options.

You are entitled to a portion, and it will take an attorney to figure that out. You might want to have a full discussion with one about bringing a partition action.

If you are not married, this is not a Family Law question. Redirect this to a Property Attorney.
