If titled as "joint tenants with right of survivorship", no. If you own as "tenants in common", yes, as your share is only an undivided 1/2 interest.

Cannot tell without seeing the Deed and how title reads. Unless it lists you as a joint tenant with right of survivorship, and only lists you as a tenant in common, his share is controlled by the Wil and his share is divided among Will named people.

I would need to see the will and a copy of the deed to proper advise.
