When siblings disagree about inherited property and unprocessed grief

My brother and I inherited our parents' house and we both have completely different ideas about what to do with it - he wants to sell, I want to keep it in the family. But underneath that we're really fighting about different ways of processing grief and what honoring our parents means.
