When inherited family property becomes a source of conflict about preserving versus liquidating legacy assets

My family inherited a property that's been in our family for generations, but maintaining it is expensive and some of us want to sell while others see that as betraying our ancestors, and we can't make any decisions because we each have an equal vote but completely different relationships to what this place means. It's the biggest asset any of us will ever inherit or leave behind.
