A:
Your question says nothing about whether or not, you are getting divorced.
If no, then you have a problem.
If yes, or you already are divorced, then you can sue for your 50%, and an accounting, for immediate relief, and ask for partition or sale of the property, and split the proceeds.
You can possess the property at any time and cause a disruption, if you want to play hardball. I would.
Get a good property lawyer, and evict the tenants, without your husband's help or participation.
There are more moves you can make, but I would need more information, to give good advice.
I hope this helps.
