Ex Wants To Fight For House

My boyfriend now ex and I both own a mobile home together we are both on the title. He left almost a month ago and dragged it out. Long story short I gave 3 different options to buy him out of the house because I need to live here I cannot move. I tried to be civil and end it quick without being nasty and going to court. He dragged out the options never answered I asked him to come to talk 3 times and each time I had stuff packed for him to take. A few days ago he had wiped out our joint bank account completely and then closed the account. Yesterday we had arranged and he agreed on a time to pick up his stuff. 13 minutes before he was supposed to be here he canceled I had all of his personal items packed. I had my best friend and her parents come over because I was scared to be alone. The last couple times I'd asked him to come get his stuff since he had left and now all the bills are in only my name I'm not going to be a garage for his stuff and I've texted I did not want to be liable for keeping his stuff I wanted him to have his personal items. He canceled a couple times when I had them drive to be at my house to be with me in case anything had happened. I think he drives and sees if there's a car that's why he cancels. I told him again on text so I could keep those receipts that I will not be held liable for his stuff and that I knew he wiped out our account. Bills are in my name get your stuff they are here we are not going to continue to drag this out we are going to put your stuff outside go get your stuff. I was not going to put his stuff outside but I wanted him to have the motivation to get it. He brought the police the police were here helping him gather his things and asking me what he should and shouldn't grab I told him I want him to have all of his personal items but things we share we are going to have to agree on in court because now it is escalated. I think he did not look good to the cops he was outside talking shit about me I stayed in the kitchen quiet and only answered questions when spoken to. After I thought that he was done gathering his things one of the cops came to the door six or seven times to request different kitchen items each a separate trip up and down my stairs like my Crock-Pot, stockpot, pressure cooker, and some canning items we shared. My friend's mom told them the crock pot was mine but if he will leave he can have it. I guess she also overheard the cop call my ex a pig under his breathe. I finally got my house key back from him that he was keeping from me I was scared he was going to come in and wipe out my house but I was also scared of changing the locks as he is also on the title. The police told me I could finally change the locks so they are all changed. I guess we are going to court now. I've been advised to wait for him to file so that he can pay for going to court but I don't know if that is something that I should do if it would be in my favor. I am now negotiating a less offer 15 was his half on the trailer I'm now considering offering 10 or 12 it is a trailer and I'm doing all of the work on it and now pay all of the bills. We've lived here for 2 years. He is a cheap stingy asshole and would argue if I brought him a grocery bill for him to split I bought all the groceries he would argue over a damn gallon of water which cost 89 cents because he drinks sink water but drinks my gallon water for me and my pets when the sink water smells bad. I know he's going to probably fight I don't know what fight is worth fighting. I'm going to have to try and get a loan I cannot pay him outright right now. I feel deep terror that I will lose this house I have never had a home in my entire life except this house and I have turned it into a home. I have animals and they cannot leave they have never been so happy and they need this too. They are my children to me. I don't know where to go from here I don't know what my options are. I don't know which step I should take. I am afraid of how this is going to go I was told worst case scenario they will make us sell the house if we can't agree to split I have never had a home like this house. I built a greenhouse out back it is anchored into the ground it is my dream greenhouse. I don't know what stuff he wants from me. He never cooked and can't cook. I did it all he always had a meal for dinner and leftovers to have for lunch for work. I didn't know he would fight over my crockpot. We bought some things on Facebook marketplace they were cheap but nice I picked everything out everything is exactly how I like it and my colors. I am materialistic there is only three things in life that I love. My pets, my stuff, and my house I will do anything to protect what I have I worked so hard for all of it. Please I need advice.
