You cannot be forced to sell unless ordered by Judge. If a Judge orders the sale you should receive full credit for all payments and maintenance you paid.

You are entitled to reimbursement from him for one-half of the principal paid during those two years by you. Then the equity is split.

If you paid while he did not, see an attorney, and your payments, at least in part, should be accounted for in the distribution.
